Finding issue

Symptom: cannot record a finding, or office expected a new job from Field.

Screen path: job detail → Findings → Add a finding. Native Field is not the Field PWA. Findings are not CAPA.

Preconditions

You must be Working. A Checklist is required when the form says so. Closed job: “This job is closed.”

Loop

1. Tap Start work if needed — Start work before recording a finding.
2. Add a finding, pick Checklist, set Severity, describe the non-conformance.
3. Save. Status Open. Creating a finding does not create a work order.
4. Resolve only after the finding has a server id. Offline-only create cannot be resolved yet.
5. Office may later open a follow-up Draft WO — that is not a Field job until assigned.

What works / does not work

	Works	Does not work
Record OPEN / RESOLVED	Yes	Auto-create from a failed checkbox
Follow-up WO	Office only	Field creating a work order
Closeout	Not blocked by open findings	Treating findings as a Complete job guard

Resolution: Start work first. See Findings.

If office expected a job after save: copy is explicit — this does not create a work order by itself.
