Delete a Task (MOP)

Delete a Task (MOP)


The Delete Task feature allows authorized users to remove tasks that were created by mistake or are no longer required. This helps keep task lists organized and ensures that staff members are only working on relevant assignments. Deleting a task is a simple process that involves selecting the task and confirming the deletion.

Alert
Maintenance tasks cannot be deleted. This restriction ensures proper tracking and accountability for maintenance issues that may affect guest safety or property operations.

Path: Dashboard>Edit Tasks > Tasks Update

Locate the Task

  1. Navigate to Edit Tasks.
  2. Open the Tasks Update tab.
  3. Find the task you want to delete.

Mark the Task for Deletion

  1. In the Del column, select the checkbox next to the task you want to remove.

Confirm the Deletion

  1. Click Delete at the bottom-right of the page. Once confirmed, the task will be removed from the active task list.

Maintenance Tasks Cannot Be Deleted

Maintenance tasks are protected from deletion for safety and tracking purposes. For example:
  1. If a guest reports an issue in a room
  2. A staff member logs the issue as a maintenance task
  3. The task must remain in the system until it is reviewed or completed
This safeguard helps ensure that important maintenance issues—such as those involving water heaters, electrical systems, or door locks—cannot be removed before someone investigates the problem.

Viewing Deleted Tasks

After a task has been deleted, it can still be reviewed. To view deleted tasks:
  1. Go to Edit Tasks.
  2. Select the Deleted Tasks tab.
This section stores previously deleted tasks for reference and auditing purposes.
