Certain tasks can be automatically triggered in AutoVitals through actions taken while using the product. These tasks have different triggers, default assignees, and how they are automatically marked completed.
Note: Each task can also manually be marked completed in the task manager using the checkmark icon.
To learn more about the task manager see here.
The table below describes the automatically generated tasks. You have the option to enable the tasks you choose in the Settings application, by navigating to Settings > Workflow > General > Task Manager > Automatically Generated Tasks

| Assign Work | This task is created once the vehicle is moved to “Waiting for Work Finished” ONLY IF the setting for “Waiting for Work Finished” in workflow step configuration is unchecked for “Automatic Job Approval” | Service Advisor assigned to the work order in the point of sale |
