# Work orders – how to process maintenance jobs

The work orders function allows you to process and track all your work orders; email suppliers and committee members; request and accept quotes and finalise work orders. You can track the whole team’s work orders or filter to view by individual or building.

A work order in PropertyIQ refers to every stage of a job that needs to be done and retains the same identity and ID number throughout the whole process.
