User Defined Work Order is one type of Work Orders. It allows users to create it within V-Suite CORE, but some of functions still need to be performed in Task Center, for example, users cannot delete, publish, and upgrade a User Defined Work Order in V-Suite CORE. Those commands can only be performed in Task Center.
