An Alert Task is used to report important issues such as maintenance problems, guest concerns, safety alerts, or operational incidents. Alerts can be created by:
- Room Attendants (from within an active task)
- Users with access to the Alerts section
This ensures that issues are reported, tracked, and resolved quickly.
When to Create an Alert Task
Create an alert when:
- A guest reports an issue or concern
- Something is broken or needs immediate attention
- A safety-related issue is identified
- An incident needs to be documented and followed up on
