Task Details
The Task Details page is where you view and manage one maintenance task: what to do, when it’s due, who it’s assigned to, what parts/docs are involved, and (when enabled) the full activity and verification trail.
#Task Details
The Task Details page is where you view and manage one maintenance task: what to do, when it’s due, who it’s assigned to, what parts/docs are involved, and (when enabled) the full activity and verification trail.
#How to get here
- From Tasks: tap a task
- From Asset Details: open the task list and select a task
#Page layout (what you’ll see)
Task Details adapts based on plan/features, but commonly includes sections like:
- Details (title, description, notes, priority, status, assignee)
- Schedule (due date + repeating schedule)
- References (documents, template procedures, linked info)
- Activity (history)
- Verification (attestations/evidence, when enabled)
If you see a tab/section selector, use it to switch between these views.
#Editing and saving (important)
Task Details may save some changes automatically, but text fields often require an explicit save.
Look for:
- An Unsaved changes banner, and/or
- A floating Save button
If you navigate away without saving, your changes may be lost.
#Primary interactive features
#Details (core task info)
Typical fields/actions include:
- Title and description
- Priority (what should be done first)
- Status (which lane it appears in on the board)
- Assignee (who owns the work)
- Due date (when it should be done)
- Notes (what you saw, what you did, reminders)
#Quick tip: keep the title actionable
Good: “Change oil + filter”
Better: “Change oil + filter (5W‑30, 6qt)”
#Update status, priority, assignee
If you have permission (captain/member), you can usually:
- Change the task status (what lane it appears in)
- Change priority
- Assign it to a person (when available)
If you’re a viewer, these controls may be disabled.
#Schedule (due dates + recurring)
In the Schedule section/tab you can:
- Set or change the due date
- Enable or edit repeating schedules (recurring tasks)
- Review schedule summaries (for example, what will happen next)
If schedule editing is disabled, it typically means you don’t have permission or the feature is not enabled for your subscription.
#Due date and recurring schedule
In the Schedule section/tab you can:
- Set or change a due date
- Enable repeating schedules (recurring tasks)
- Review the next scheduled occurrence timing (when available)
#Notes and instructions
Use the Details section to capture:
- Work description
- Notes/observations
- Guidance/procedure content (depending on configuration)
#References (documents, templates, supporting info)
#Documents
Tasks can have supporting documents (photos, PDFs, receipts, manuals).
Common actions:
- Attach an existing document from the explorer
- Upload a new document/photo
- Open a document to view/download it
See: Documents
#Templates and procedures (when enabled)
If the task is template-backed, you may be able to:
- View the template procedure steps
- Rate the template after completion (when enabled)
See:
#Parts (when enabled)
If the Parts workflow is enabled, you can:
- Search and add parts needed for the job
- Track packaging/quantities/serials (as supported)
- Mark parts as bought/used/stashed (depending on the screen)
#Assistant guide (when enabled)
Some tasks can use the MaintenanceFreak Assistant to generate a step-by-step guide.
You may see:
- A disclaimer acknowledging AI-generated guidance
- A guide preview and “open full screen” option
- Rating/feedback controls
See: Assistant Guide
#Activity (history) (when enabled)
The Activity section/tab shows task history such as:
- Status changes
- Schedule changes
- Attachments and updates
This is useful when collaborating so everyone understands what changed and why.
#Inspections
If the task is an inspection, you may be able to open an inspection runner to execute the checklist and attach evidence.
See: Inspection Run
#Verification (when enabled)
Verification is used for sign-offs and evidence trails. When enabled, you may see:
- Attestation entries
- Evidence previews
- Verification checklists
#Archive / restore (when enabled)
Archiving is used to move completed/old tasks out of the active board.
- Archived tasks are typically viewable but may not be completable or editable in the same way.
#Tips
- If an action is disabled, confirm your role in the garage (viewer vs member/captain).
- Dates and times display in your local timezone.
