In the context of Work Order Management, a Closure Code is a predefined label or category used to specify the reason or status upon completing a work order.
Overview
A Closure Code in a Work Order refers to a predefined code or label used to indicate the reason for closing the Work Order. When a particular Work Order is completed, resolved, or no longer required, the user selects an appropriate closure code from a predefined list to signify the reason for closing the work item.
