Understand the stages of a work order from creation to payment.
The lifecycle of a work order is the central concept in the Field Nation platform. Understanding these states is critical for building a robust integration.
When you first POST a work order, it is created in the Draft state.
Once published, the work order enters the marketplace.
Routed or Published.You have selected a provider and they have accepted the work.
Assigned.The provider has marked the work as complete.
Work Done.The work is accepted.
Approved.Payment has been transferred to the provider.
Paid.Integration Tip: Most integrations poll for status changes or listen to Webhooks to trigger their internal workflows (e.g., closing a ticket when the work order is Approved).
