In this article we will go over how to add a Task. 

To add a Task hover over Property Maintenance >> select a property. 

Step 1: Expand the Tasks menu

Step 2: Click Add New Task

Step 3: The Add New Task window will appear as pictured below. 

Step 4:   Enter a Task Name. This field is for internal use only, it will not show up for the customer or the officer.

Step 5: Select an Issue Type. This is what will show up in the issue monitor, reports, etc. Make sure the issue type is a descriptive title of the task being assigned. 

NOTE: It is important to remember that all tasks must be created using an issue type. This can be done by either creating a new issue type or using an existing one. 

Step 7: Select the Property Address. 

Step 8: You'll have the option to assign this task to a unit/suite or a location. This is not a required field.

Step 9: Select a Task Time. This is the time the task will be automatically sent to the property/handheld.

Step 10: Select the Task Day(s) of Week. These are the days of the week in which the task will be sent to the property/handheld. 

Step 11: Select the Alert if Left Open field. This allows certain users to be alerted when a task is overdue. Use this feature if you'd like your supervisors or dispatch to be notified when an officer fails to respond to a task within a certain time frame.
