1.3.  Implode Work Order

When you implode a Work Order, you delete the Work Order's Material Requirements and Work Order Operations. Only Work Orders with exploded ("E") Status can be imploded. If the Work Order has been released ("R") or is in-process ("I"), it may not be imploded. Implosion changes a Work Order's Status from exploded ("E") back to open ("O").
