Job Closing

This screen allows you to select one or more Job Orders from a list and change their status to ‘Closed’.  The displayed list shows all Job orders - each with a checkbox for you to select it to be ‘Closed’.  An Additional field ‘Allow Close’ is automatically ‘checked’ if the Job Order has no outstanding Purchase receipts linked to a Job Order Line.  You can override this by ‘checking’ this checkbox if you want to close the Job Order.  It is only when both these fields are ‘checked’ will Ostendo ‘Close’ the Order
