Log a Quick Task
Goal: Record an unplanned or ad-hoc maintenance job in a single step, without creating a full task first — so the work is logged for compliance and history even when there was no scheduled task for it.
Before you start
- You must have permission to create quick tasks. If you don’t see the Quick Task button, ask your fleet administrator.
Steps
Open the Tasks list
-
From the main navigation, open PMS → Tasks.
[PLACEHOLDER: screenshot — Tasks list with the Quick Task button visible in the toolbar]
