Following fields that need to be populated on the form:

Asset – the asset that the Work Order is being raised against,

Priority – this drop-down list contains all priorities defined in the system,

Start Date – the date this work order should be started by. This date is always defaulted to the current date and time,

End Date – the date this work order should be completed by. This date is usually calculated automatically according to the selected priority. If the priority is set to avoid automatic due date calculation, the due date will not be calculated automatically and it will have to be populated by the user.
