Answer · Maintenance & repairs

How do I track maintenance requests?

The short answer

Keep one traceable record for each issue, with the report, responsible person, status, communications, work and completion evidence. Make the next action and owner visible so a status label cannot hide unfinished work.

Capture the essentials

Record property and unit, reported symptoms, time, contact details, attachments and urgency assessment. Link duplicate reports without deleting relevant history or losing a resident's update.

Track real milestones

Separate received, assigned, accepted, attended and resolved where your workflow supports them. Review note visibility before sharing. Verify invoices and payment separately from repair completion.

Example: a resident calls twice

Add the second call and new information to the existing issue or link the records. Two closed tickets should not conceal one unresolved repair.
