How to Create a Task on Snapfix

Introduction

In Snapfix, a Task is an action item or job that needs to be completed—such as a maintenance issue, safety check, or operational request. Creating tasks helps teams track, manage, and resolve issues efficiently, ensuring nothing is missed.


What Does a Task Include?

Each task typically contains:


📸 A Photo or Video – Visually capture the issue or job.


🔴🟡🟢 Status – Tasks move through three traffic light stages:

  • Red = New
  • Yellow = In Progress
  • Green = Complete

    👤 Assignees – Individuals responsible for completing the task.
    💬 Comments & Updates – Enable real-time collaboration and communication.
    Priority & Reminders – Set urgency and schedule notifications.

Steps to Create a Task in Snapfix

1. Open the Group

  • Navigate to the appropriate Group (e.g. Reactive Maintenance).
  • Tap the blue ‘+’ icon in the bottom-right corner of the screen.
  • You can also use the ‘microphone’ icon to record a voice task.

2. Add a Photo, Video, or Sketch

  • Snapfix will prompt you to upload or capture a visual of the issue:
    Take a new photo or video
    Upload from camera roll
    Create a sketch
    Use text-only (if needed)

3. Annotate the Photo (Optional)

  • Use the sidebar tools to annotate or highlight specific areas in your image.

4. Apply Required Tags (if applicable)

  • If Location, Equipment, or Category Tags are set as mandatory, you will be prompted to select them.
  • These tags help categorise and track the task more efficiently.

5. Create the Task

  • Once saved, the task is marked as RED (New Task).
  • You can now assign one or more users to the task.
