Maintenance - what are "Jobs" and "Tasks"?
The maintenance job page provides a comprehensive view of all tasks in the same recurring Job. Single tasks are managed in the task details page, whereas recurring tasks can also be viewed and edited through the maintenance job page area below.
Editing a Job would normally only be done to change the frequency of recurrence of the Tasks (for example when changing a monthly task to a quarterly one).
To Edit a Maintenance Job, navigate to the Maintenance Job details page. This page is only available for recurring maintenance tasks. You can get there from:
- The Maintenance Hub > 3 dots menu > View Job
- The Property > Tasks > 3 dots menu > View Job
- The Tenancy > Tasks > 3 dots menu > View Job
- The Task details page > 3 dots menu > View Job
- A Maintenance reminder pop-up on the Dashboard > View Maintenance Job
From the Job Details Page, click Edit in the top right corner to edit the job description or the recurrence details.
Once you are happy with your changes, click save to confirm.
Please note – changing the frequency will cause any existing incomplete Tasks to be deleted and replaced by new Tasks. If you do not wish to lose the information on these Tasks, it may be better to edit the due dates on the individual Tasks instead. Click here for more information about editing Tasks.
