Error codes

Right now, it is possible to close a work order without having to fill in error codes. If you fill in "error class 980" you can close the work orders without having to fill in more error codes. This creates problems for us when we have to make a statistic on where we have a volume of one type of error coding. My idea is to make a condition that you have to fill in error codes to be able to close the orders.

    Thank you for your submission. Can you be more specific about which fields you would like to set as required? (object.attribute). There are ways that your administrator can configure the application to make certain fields required conditionally (on status change).
