# Create work orders
Depending on your store's policies, you may be required to select a customer to create a work order. Selecting the customer when you create the work order makes it easier to look up the work order later when the customer returns to the store to pick up their order and pay the balance owing.
1. Tap **Orders** | **Work Order**.
{% hint style="info" %}
You will know that POS is in work order mode if you see the work order icon in the top right corner of the screen.
{% endhint %}
2. (Optional) Look up the customer. Refer to [**Look up customers**](/readme-1/work-with-customers/customers-looking-up.md) for more information.
3. Enter all of the items in the work order.
{% hint style="info" %}
If your store requires customers to pay a deposit on work orders, the **Addl. deposit** field indicates the **required deposit amount**.
{% endhint %}
4. Tap **Transaction** | **Tender Sale**. You can also press **F12** or **Enter**.
5. Enter the amount next to the appropriate tender type.
6. Tap **OK**.
7. Tap **Yes** to print the receipt.
The receipt shows the total work order amount including tax, the deposit amount, and the balance owing on the work order.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.rmhpos.com/readme-1/work-with-work-orders/work-orders-creating.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
