You use the Apply Route action to apply any number of routes to a work order. (The term "work order" can refer to a work order, change, release, or activity record.) A route is a list of related work assets (assets, locations, or a combination of both) that which are considered "stops" along the route. A route's list of work assets may be related by location, such as all pumps and motors in a room, or by type of asset, such as all laptops located at a site. Each route stop may have its own job plan, which the system copies to the child "route stop" work order. When you apply a route to a work order, the route stops appear on the Plans tab as child work orders.
You create routes in the Routes application. For more information about routes, refer to Routes help.
Display the work order to which you want to apply a route.
From the Select Action menu, select Apply Route to open the Apply Route dialog box.

Click the underlined route to apply it to the record. The system copies the route stops and their sequence in the route. Sequence numbers are copied to the work orders you create.
