WOM Tutorial – Adding Work Tasks and Costs to Look Up Tables

In this example, we’ll cover how to add work tasks to your lookup tables if they don’t
already exist.

  1. Under Hub, go to Data Tools, and then the Look Up Table Editor.
    You will see Work Tasks here.
  2. Click on Work Tasks, and the Look Up Table Editor window will open. This
    contains the list of all work tasks that are currently available.
  3. Click on the ‘Add’ button.
  4. This will enable you to populate a new record in the look-up table with the
    specific task, as well as the Work Category.
  5. After adding the new work task, you can add costs for this task, or any other
    existing tasks. In the Look Up Table Editor, first check the box next to the
    work task you would like to associate costs with, and then select the ‘Costs’
    button.
  6. This will open the Costs window. In this case, we will set the costs based on
    the DBH of the tree, but you have the ability to auto assign costs based on a
    variety of attributes. Add size or categories, then assign a fixed price and/or an
    hourly rate. Mark the checkbox next to each record to activate the tool and
    auto assign costs based on your input values. When finished populating the
    categories and associated costs, click the Save button in the upper left. Edits
    are not applied until you do this.

    1. To add additional categories and their associated costs, use the
      button in the upper left, which will generate another row that can be
      populated.
    2. If you leave a minimum value blank, it will be assigned as negative
      infinity. If you leave a maximum value blank, it will be assigned as
      positive infinity.
    3. If a fixed price or hourly rate doesn’t apply to your scenario, uncheck the
      checkbox in those columns.
    4. If you need to delete a Size/Category, check the box next to it, and then
      click the Delete Checked button in the upper left.
  7. After populating the costs table, this data will now be auto filled when
    creating Work Records.
