Rendering a work order page is quite involved, we make an initial call to the API to fetch some basic information and then AJAX more complete information (eg: appointment details) and the content for the tabs.
In the API, we access 3 databases, the data warehouse, the universal housing (UH) database and the DRS database (for appointment details).
To track work orders that are related to others we use a feed system to pull any new work orders or notes every 5 minutes. We then:
- store any work order references or note ids we receive
- scan the text for any 8 digit work order references
- create a citation link between any related work orders
