# How to create a work order for a route from a preventive maintenance event?

- [x] PT

---

It is possible to create a work order from a preventive maintenance event **automatically** or **at the user's request**.

---

## Automatic creation

The work order is automatically generated in the preventive maintenance record when:

- The **state** in which the work order should be created is defined in the **WO State** field;
- The **automatic reprogramming** service is **active**;

On the day the event occurs, the work order is **automatically** generated when the service is **performed**.

---

## Creation at the user's request

To manually create a work order from a preventive maintenance event, follow these steps:

- Go to **Work | Preventive Maintenance | Prev. Maint. Events**;
- In the **Event** column, select the desired event;
- Click on **Operations** and then select the **Create Work Order**

> [!WARNING]
> After the work order is generated, the **assets on the selected route** are **associated with the work order** according to the following criteria:
> 
> - Assets **added to the route** after the work order was created **are not associated**;
> - Assets on the route marked as **inactive are not associated**;
> - Route elements that are in **downtime are associated** with the work order.
