Decision date
Decision date tells you when the decision on this row was made. Due on tells you when the work was expected to happen. Comparing the two helps you distinguish a plan made in advance from a later reschedule or completion update.
Work history
Work history explains how the plan for a job developed. It keeps the saved decisions to create, reschedule, complete, cancel or reopen that job, so an earlier date or assignment does not disappear when the plan changes.
Use Work plan when you want to know what is currently intended. Come here when you want to understand the decisions behind it, such as why a job was delayed or why completed work needed another visit.
How to use this page
The Task number is the thread that connects a job’s updates. Find that number, then compare its rows; the newest saved entry is shown first. Each row describes the plan at that point, including its due date, wording and assigned person.
- Find the job using its Task number. Read Decision date and Decision together to understand when someone created or changed the plan.
- Compare Due on, Work, Assigned to and Detail across its updates. These explain what changed and the reason someone recorded.
- Use Related record to find any separate observation or stock event. A task marked Complete establishes that the work was recorded as done; its findings and any stock changes need their own records.
- If another update is needed, add it on Task changes. This page fills from Task changes, so make the new entry there and return here to read the result.
Entry number
Entry number labels one decision about the job, such as its original plan or a later change of date. Task number labels the whole job. Read them together when you need to distinguish one update from the other decisions about that same work.
Task number
All updates with the same Task number belong to one job. Follow that number through the history even if dates, assignments or wording changed. A matching description alone is less reliable because two separate jobs can have similar names.
Stock number
The Stock number identifies the item or lot connected to that update. It gives you a way to find the stock concerned when reading an older plan. A blank can be appropriate for a general farm job, so it does not necessarily mean information is missing.
Due on
Due on is the planned day saved on this particular update. After a reschedule, the earlier row still shows the former date and the newer row shows the revised one. This makes the change understandable; use the latest update or Work plan when you need the current plan.
Due time
This is the planned time saved with the update, if someone entered one. A blank means that update specified a day without a particular time of day. Read it alongside Due on rather than interpreting the time on its own.
Work
Work contains the job description as it was saved on that update. The wording may change when a task is clarified or its plan is revised. Read the newer update for the current wording and use the earlier one to understand what was originally intended.
Decision
Decision tells you what happened to the plan. Create starts the job, Reschedule changes its plan, Complete records it as done, Cancel means it is no longer planned, and Reopen returns it to work that needs attention. These decisions concern the job; look for the separate note or stock event when you need to know what was found or physically changed.
Assigned to
Assigned to shows the person or team named on that update. Comparing it across rows can explain a change of responsibility. Read any accompanying Detail for the handover context; the recorded name does not show that a notification was sent.
Related record
This gives the number of a separate note or stock entry that helps explain the decision. Find that saved information when you want to know what an inspection found or what physically changed. A task marked Complete tells you the job was recorded as done; it does not supply those findings by itself.
Detail
Detail explains the circumstances of this update in the words entered at the time. It may describe weather that delayed work, a change of responsibility or a concern that led to reopening. Read it with the dates and Decision so the sequence makes sense as a story rather than a list of changing values.
