Task List in AR Tracking
The Task List in AR Tracking helps you manage resident-related follow-ups and assignments in one central place. You can view and create tasks from the Task List dashboard—while still linking every task to a specific resident.
Adding a Task
Tasks can be added in two places:
- From the Task List Dashboard
When creating a task this way, you’ll be required to select a resident the task applies to. - From a Resident Profile
Task Details
- Each task includes the following fields:
- Resident – all tasks must be tied to a specific resident.
- Assigned To – can assign to any user with access to AR Tracking and the facility the resident belongs to.
- Task Type – choose from a list of predefined categories. This list can be managed under the "AR Tracking" settings page.
- Description – provide any relevant information or instructions.
- Due Date
- High Priority – optional checkbox to flag important tasks.
Task Statuses
Tasks move through two statuses:
- In Progress – default status when the task is created.
- Complete – anyone with access to the task can mark it as complete.
Closed – after a task is marked complete, a user with the permission can officially Close the task. Closed tasks don't show on the task table unless "Show Closed" is checked off.
Updates and Attachments
Updates (Messages)
- Users can leave updates on any task they have access to.
