To-Do List Summary brings together recent work order activity, conversations awaiting a reply, urgent assigned work orders, and purchase orders needing action. You can use the brief to prioritize your day.

When to Use To-Do List Summary​

You can use To-Do List Summary at the start of your day or whenever you need to review what needs your attention. The brief helps you identify follow-up tasks without checking each MaintainX® module separately.

  • Work Orders
