work orders

Hello,
I am 2 weeks into trying to learn Mie Trak and I ran into an issue that doesn't make sense to me.

My estimator issued a work order this morning and the requested due date is Dec. 1st. I tried to add that work order to my backwards scheduling, but it is not showing up on my scheduling board.

So far, I have come up with a theory that the work order just hasn't been accepted into open work orders yet. 

Can anyone shed some light on this as to why the work order is not visible on my scheduling board?

Thank you
