Modify the Standard Solatech Work Order for Printing From Order Entry

Summary

The standard Solatech Work Order included within the software distribution is enabled to commit inventory. Even for those users without the Inventory Control feature, a change in how Inventory printing is done prevents printing the unmodified Work Order from printing within Order Entry. In order to bypass this issue, you must duplicate the standard included Work Order and turn off the Inventory Commit feature.
