Complete - Incomplete Tasks
This article explains how to complete or mark tasks as incomplete in the roommaster mobile housekeeping module for housekeeping managers.
Overview
When you open a room that has a task, you have the option to complete the task or mark it as incomplete. These actions are available in the housekeeping tab and will affect both the task status and room status accordingly.

Manager Actions: As a housekeeping manager, you can perform these actions on behalf of housekeepers. This allows you to manage task completion and ensure proper workflow when housekeepers are unavailable or when you need to override task statuses for operational reasons.
