Creating a work order in WorkMate allows you to manage custom orders, assign labour, and track progress from within your Shopify POS.
1. Open WorkMate from Shopify POS
Log in to your Shopify store.
2. Create a New Work Order
Click on the Work Orders tile from the main dashboard.
Click New Work Order.
3. Select a Customer
In the Customer field, select or search for the customer for whom you are creating the work order.
You can either choose an existing customer from the dropdown or add a new customer in the Customers section on your Admin dashboard.
Example: Karine Ruby
4. Add Products to the Work Order
Click Add Product.
Example: LuxeComfort Modular Sofa - Armless Middle Section
Return to the main work order page when you are done.
5. (Optional) Add Services
Click Add Service.
Select from pre-configured services (eg. Car Washing) or create a new one by clicking New Service.
6. (Optional) Add serials to the Work Order
Click the Add serial button.
This page will display all the products that have the "True" metafield marked on the product level of your Shopify admin.
From here, you'll be able to view and add your serialized items to your work order.
7. Add Notes and Hidden Notes
Notes: These are customer-facing notes that can appear on the printed or emailed version of the work order.
Hidden Notes: These are internal notes for employees and will not be visible to the customer.
Enter any relevant information about the order, such as special instructions or internal reminders.
8. Create the Work Order
Once all the necessary details are entered, click Create work order at the bottom of the page.
The work order is now saved as a Draft status (or another default status based on your configuration).
9. Review the Created Work Order
After saving, you will be taken to a confirmation page.
Click the Back to word order button to review your work order or update any information.
