Four work order workspaces present visualizations of work order metrics in varying views. These views can be dynamically re-configured enabling you to focus on content most critical in your environment. The sixth workspace provides easy access to detailed descriptions for each of the metrics.
To highlight the configurability and dynamic display of this functionality, the four different work order workspaces have been designed to utilize the same work order metrics.
