  Task Work Order Status does not change when Parent Work Order
  Status is changed.
  

Problem conclusion

• The problem exists when you have a child or task associated to
  the backdated workorder.  There is no way to backdate the
  status of the child/task workorders.  Nevertheless, a warning
  message should appear informing the user of the problem.
