    About this task

    If you encounter issues with resolving or completing an order task, you can create fallout records. Fallout records enable you to identify, investigate, and resolve order processing issues so that orders can continue processing through to completion.

    When you create a manual fallout record, or an automated one is generated, the following occurs in the related order task:
    • Its State field changes to On hold, with a comment on which logged-in user caused it to change.
    • In the Activity section, a work order note indicates that the order task state has changed from its former state, usually In Progress, to On hold. A work order note with the message A fallout record FOnnnn has been created also appears.

    If you create a manual fallout record or an automated one is generated for the order tasks, you can easily review and track all fallout records for a specific order. Use the Fallouts (n) tab (where n is the number of fallouts) that appears when you view the related customer or service order in the Customer Order form.
