The Daily Log window allows you to enter, edit, and approve or disapprove all types of Day Cards for all work orders performed by agency personnel for a single day. In other words, the Daily Log window is a way to record all activities that take place in your administrative unit for a single day.
Conversely, the Work Orders window lets you edit all the Day Cards for any single work order across multiple days. The end result is the same for any given work order regardless of the window you use to edit the Day Cards; the Daily Log window simply provides a different interface to the same information.
The Work Orders pane shows all WOs owned by your Admin Unit which are Active and which have at least one day card (labor, equipment, material, or accomplishment) which is dated the same as the Effective Date currently selected for the window. If there are no day cards, then use the right-click action Edit Selection to select the desired work orders.
