Work Order

Work Orders are used to manage and track the progress of maintenance or repair tasks raised against a property. They also serve as the basis for billing work carried out by contractors.

  • To process payments for completed Work Orders, refer to the Paying Contractors section.

  • For internal office expenses or bills unrelated to property maintenance, use the Bills function.


Accessing Work Orders

You can view and manage Work Orders from the following locations:

  • Main tab (left hand side)→ Property Management → Work Order List to view all Work Orders across the system in a single screen.

  • Contacts Screen Open the Work Orders tab to see all Work Orders associated with a specific contact (only if the contact is set as a Contractor).

  • Properties Screen Use the Work Orders tab to view all Work Orders linked to a specific property.


Viewing and Managing Work Orders

Work Orders are displayed in chronological order by default, making it easy to track recent activity. You can apply filters to refine the list based on:
