WIP status codes are found in the WIP Status field on the Point-of-Sale form. They are used by the service department to determine the progress of the WIP from the point that it is raised through to completion, and are set automatically by the system when the progress code is set on a Service WIP line.
Note: Standard functionality exists that enables you to create and maintain records. However, these status codes must not be modified without Autoline consultancy.
To access WIP statuses:
From the Rev.8 Master Menu, select the Point-of-sale option and Company you require.
The POINT OF SALE menu is displayed.
Select Miscellaneous options.
The SO MISCELLANEOUS OPTIONS menu is displayed.

This form is displayed when you select the WIP statuses option from the SO MISCELLANEOUS OPTIONS menu. From this form you can create and maintain WIP statuses.

Operation sequence: The sequence of events in the life of a WIP. For example, a WIP could go from M (Memo), to C (Complete but NOT Invoiced), to X (Fully costed and Invoiced). Each event is allocated a sequence number. The table of WIP statuses is listed below in order of sequence. The mandatory sequence numbers are 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, and so on, which are set up as standard on the Autoline system. The other sequence numbers are suggested options.
