We would like to add Work Order ID's to the project so there is a drop down list of ID's to choose from when creating an assignment. How are people using this field? How do you integrate the Work Order ID field with a third party system?
Thanks,
Michelle
This is still in our backlog to address after Workforce has been added to the Field Maps app (which is still slated to start later this year).
As a way to solve this today, I'd point to the topic on integrating Workforce with the Python API:

Hi Cody,
Unfortunately I have not been able to find an answer yet; however I think that future releases of Workforce that will be associated with Field Maps with have that functionality (according to this thread).

MS,
Were you able to find an answer to your question? I also need to find a way for the Work Order ID to pre-populated.

Not at this time, it is still in our backlog but will not be added to a release until Workforce is a part of Field Maps - which is tentatively planned to start later this year.

Hi, any update?
Hello Craig,
- Have there been any progress for the Work Order ID field to be pre-populated?
- Echoing LaneHartman's question, where can we see a sample of the Python code to populate the Work Order ID field at regular intervals for assignments?
- Is there a way for Workforce to automatically ensure that work order IDs are unique, (e.g. in the event of entering duplicate IDs erroneously)?
As a GIS professional with questionable programming skills, I would really like to deal with most of these issues without needing to code.

Erica,
It's not assigned to release at this time, but I am hoping we can get to this in one of our next few releases.
I've added your request and info to the issue for tracking purposes.
Hi Craig,
When is this feature anticipated to be added into Workforce?
Thanks!
Erica
Craig, can you point me in the direction of a code sample that does this?
Hello Michelle,
We plan to include the ability for the Work Order ID field to be pre-populated based on expression in our roadmap; we're working with other areas of the ArcGIS platform on this.
One technique I have seen used for sites who need this ability is to use a Python script to populate the Work Order ID field at regular intervals (i.e. every 5 mins) for assignments after they are created.
