Create tasks from the Taskboard, from a room or from the mobile app, and save time with task templates.

There are a few ways to create a task in Sweeply. Pick the one that fits what you're doing.

Create a task from the Taskboard

  1. Open Taskboard from the left sidebar.

  2. Click New Task in the top right corner.

  3. Fill in the details:

    • Name, for example "Baby crib"

    • Due date (required)

    • Unit: the room the task is for

    • Assign users: one or more people, now or later

  4. Save. The task shows up on the Taskboard for that day.

Create a task from a room

  1. Go to the Housekeeping overview and click the room.

  2. Click the three dots in the top right corner.

  3. Select Create task, then choose From a template or From scratch.

Create a task in the mobile app

  1. Open the app and go to My Tasks.

  2. Tap the red + button at the bottom of the screen.

  3. Add the title, due date, priority and who to assign it to.

  4. Tap Save.

Save time with task templates

Task templates are reusable tasks, so you don't have to type the same details every time.

  1. Go to Settings → Automation → Task Templates.

  2. Click Create Task Templates.

  3. Fill in:

    • Name (required), for example "Check minibar"

    • Task type (required): General or Issue

    • Optional: description, priority, credits and categories

  4. Click Create.

You can then use the template when you create a task from a room, or add it to a workflow so Sweeply creates the task automatically on a schedule.

Managing tasks on the Taskboard

  • Switch days: click a date in the calendar.

  • Complete a task: hover over it and select Complete task. Select Uncomplete to reopen it.

  • Change the due date: open the task, or hover over it.

  • Priority: mark a task as priority to pin it to the top with a red exclamation mark.
