Answering tasks on Dalux Mobile

From the home tab on Dalux Mobile, the inbox can be accessed.

Press 'Inbox' on the -screen and then press on a task. The task will be displayed, including the topic, location, description, and sender. Pressing will show the available response options.

  • Use Add information if you want to add information, but not change the task status.
  • Use Report ready to answer the task. This will return the task to the person who sent it, and the task will leave your inbox.
  • Use Reject if the task was wrongly assigned.

 Important

When you add information, the task will not be moved forward in the workflow and is not sent to another person. 

This also means that no notification is sent to another user.

The "add information" button has multiple purposes. For example, you can use it to provide extra details to answer a question from the person responsible for the task.

Add a photo and a short description and press the -icon. In the example below, a received task is reported ready.

 

Tasks can also be opened from Locations.

Press Locations in the bottom menu. Then press the location selection menu at the bottom. A number will show next to the location name if there are tasks in that location. Press 'Show' to go to the location.

Tasks will appear as dots on the drawing. Press a dot, and the task can be opened by pressing the task name. The task can be answered using the same method as described above.

 Tips and tricks

In the home menu, you can press 'Show all folders' to view the various status inboxes. Tasks you have responded to will be in the 'Awaiting approval' folder until the sender approves them. Once approved, the task will move to the 'Closed' folder.
