====== Work Order ======

Work order is a ticket system, working with campaign or customer service, it is used to control a work flow for customers. A work order is like a tracer, so all work on the work order could get recorded, archived and traced. 

Work order could be used for e-commerce, customer service, education, sales, out sourcing etc.

So how to create a work order? Let's start with a e-commerce company to show you how to use work order to manage the work.

  - agent in **Sales Group** get a call, customer want to place an order for some products, agent will create the orders and a work order, then forward the work order to **Finance Group**
  - agent in **Finance Group** will check if all are correct in the order, waiting for the payment, and then forward the work order to **Warehouse Group**
  - agent in **Warehouse Group** will do the products check list and finish the package, then forward the work order to **Logistics Group**
  - agent in **Logistics Group** will send the package, trace the transport status, make sure customer receive the products, then forward the work order to the agent who created the work order
  - agent in **Sales Group** will do customer care, collect feed back and finally, close the work order
