How to use this work order generator

Fill in the job-site address, who the work is assigned to, and the scheduled date. List the scope of work as line items — each task, plus the materials and equipment it needs. Choose whether to show or hide prices: leave them on for a customer copy that confirms the agreed amounts, or turn them off for an internal shop copy the crew carries into the field. Export the PDF, which includes an authorization signature line. The draft saves in your browser, so nothing is uploaded.

What to put on a work order

Where the work order fits

Win the job with an estimate, hand the crew a work order to execute it, then bill with an invoice and close it out with a receipt. Using one tool for all four keeps your paperwork consistent and your job records tied together.

A worked example

A repair job is assigned to Mike for next Tuesday at 123 Oak St: 4 hours of labor, $120 of materials, and a service call. On the customer copy the work order shows the amounts and totals; untick “Show prices” and the same work order prints just the scope and quantities for the shop copy — same job, two purposes, one tool.

Frequently asked questions

What is a work order?

A work order is the document that authorizes and describes a job to be done. It lists the scope of work, who is assigned, where and when the work happens, and the materials and labor involved. It turns an approved quote into clear instructions for the crew — and a record of what was authorized.

What should a work order include?

Your business, the customer, a work-order number and date, the job-site address, who the work is assigned to, the scheduled date, and an itemized scope of work with quantities. Pricing is optional — include it on a customer copy, or hide it on an internal shop copy. An authorization signature line makes it official.

What is the difference between a work order and an estimate or invoice?

An estimate proposes a price to win the job; an invoice bills for it afterward. A work order sits between them: it authorizes the work and tells the crew exactly what to do, where, and when. Build the price with an estimate, execute with a work order, then bill with an invoice.

Can I hide prices on the work order?

Yes. Untick “Show prices” and the work order lists only the scope of work and quantities — no dollar amounts — which is what many contractors want on the copy that goes to the field. Leave it ticked for a customer-facing work order that shows the agreed amounts.

Is this work order template free?

Yes — free and unlimited, no watermark. Your data stays in your browser; nothing is uploaded. The first PDF export asks for an email, then exports are instant.
