Close or reopen a job

Before you begin

Closing a job requires the Close Jobs permission. Reopening a closed job requires the Reopen Jobs permission. See Work Order permissions for what each permission controls.

Close a job

  1. On the Work Order, find the job you want to close. The Close Job action is available on any job in Open or Partial status.

  2. Select Close Job.

  3. If your organization uses completion codes, select one from the Accomplish Code list in the confirmation dialog. This step is optional if no completion code list appears.

  4. If the job is a PM job, closing it updates the PM’s Last Done values. A prompt appears only when Fleet360 has a reason to ask: the work order’s meter reading is older than the PM’s last recorded meter, or this work order has already updated the PM once. Leave Update Last PM selected (or choose Update) to write the new values, or clear it (Keep Current) to close the job without changing the PM. If a PM still shows due after the close, see PM still shows due after the work order was closed.

  5. Select Close in the confirmation dialog.

The job's status changes to Closed.

Reopen a job

  1. On the Work Order, find the job you want to reopen. The Reopen Job action is available only on a job in Closed status (it does not appear on Estimate Work Orders).

  2. Select Reopen Job.

  3. Select Reopen in the confirmation dialog. If the parent Work Order is already closed, the dialog tells you it will be reopened along with the job.

The job's status changes back to an active status, and the parent Work Order reopens too if it had been closed.

If this step fails

If Close or Reopen doesn't complete, or the dialog shows a message explaining why the job can't close, see Job can't be closed or reopened for the full diagnostic path.
