In order for user time to be recorded on a task, a user must first have been assigned to that task. Users can also self-assign.
Assigning users will cause:
- A push notification to be sent to the user via the Maintainly mobile app (if the user has enabled this option); 
- An email to be sent to the user (unless the user has disabled this option); 
- The task to display in the user's My Tasks list (which can be filtered to using the advanced filter) 
- The user to be included when filtering the task list (using the advanced filter) using the "Involves..." filter option. 
To assign users to a task from the task list view:
- From the task list view, use the advanced filter to isolate the tasks that are to be assigned; 
- Check the box to the left of the tasks that are to be assigned; 
- Click Assign in the shortcuts bar; 
- Check the box next to the users that are to be assigned; 
- Click Confirm. 
NOTE: Assigned users will be sent a mobile push notification and the task will be listed in their My Task list (available in the advanced filter)
To assign users from within a task:
- From within a task, navigate to the Technicians tab; 
- Click Assign; 
- Filter to and then select the user to be assigned, or check the box next to multiple users that are to be assigned; 
- Click Confirm; 
NOTE: Assigned users will be sent a mobile push notification and the task will be listed in their My Task list (available in the advanced filter)
