Maintenance Manager Pro
System Tutorial

This guide covers the core areas of Maintenance Manager Pro without overwhelming you with every setting. Follow the sections below to learn how to navigate the system, manage maintenance requests, schedule preventive maintenance, track assets, work with apartment records, manage users, review reports, and get support.

Step 1

Getting Started & Understanding the Dashboard

The dashboard is your starting point. It gives you a quick view of maintenance activity so you can immediately see what needs attention.

1
Sign in to your account

After signing in, use the main navigation to move between Tickets, Preventive Maintenance, Assets, Apartments, Users, Reports & Insights, and Support.

2
Review current activity

Use the dashboard to quickly review new, assigned, in-progress, completed, and other current maintenance activity.

3
Open the area you need

Select the appropriate module from the navigation rather than searching through multiple screens.

Quick tip: Start each shift by checking the dashboard and the current ticket queue so urgent or unassigned work is not overlooked.

Step 2

Managing Maintenance Tickets

Tickets are the center of day-to-day maintenance activity. Use them to record issues, establish priorities, assign responsibility, and track work through completion.

1
Open Tickets

Use the ticket queue to review current requests and locate existing work orders.

2
Create a ticket

Select the appropriate apartment or location, enter the maintenance issue, choose the priority, and provide the important details.

3
Assign and update

Assign the work to the appropriate maintenance technician when needed and update the ticket as the work progresses.

4
Complete the work order

When the work is finished, add any final notes or information and mark the ticket completed.

Best practice: Use clear descriptions and accurate priorities so maintenance staff can understand the problem before arriving at the location.

Step 3

Preventive Maintenance

Preventive Maintenance helps your team stay ahead of routine service instead of waiting for equipment or property issues to become emergency repairs.

1
Create the maintenance schedule

Add the preventive maintenance task and identify what needs to be serviced.

2
Set the frequency

Choose the recurring schedule that matches the required maintenance interval.

3
Identify location and responsibility

Connect the task to the appropriate area or equipment and assign responsibility when applicable.

4
Monitor upcoming work

Use the preventive maintenance list to see what is upcoming, overdue, or completed.

Step 4

Asset Management

Asset Management keeps important equipment and property assets connected to their maintenance information and service history.

1
Add or locate an asset

Use the asset list to find existing equipment or create a record for new equipment that needs to be tracked.

2
Keep asset information current

Maintain useful details such as location, status, installation information, and related maintenance activity.

3
Connect maintenance history

Use the asset record to help understand previous service and related tickets when troubleshooting future issues.

Why it matters: A good asset record makes it easier to see whether equipment is becoming unreliable or requiring repeated maintenance.

Step 5

Apartments & Property Records

The Apartments area keeps unit information organized and gives your team an easier way to connect maintenance activity to the correct apartment.

1
Find the apartment

Use the apartment list and search tools to quickly locate the unit you need.

2
Review unit information

Open the apartment record to review unit details, resident information, notes, and related maintenance history.

3
Use the history when creating or reviewing tickets

Past maintenance activity can provide useful context when the same issue occurs again.

Step 6

Users & Staff

The Users area controls who can access Maintenance Manager Pro and what level of access each person receives.

1
Review current users

Use the user list to see active staff accounts and their assigned roles.

2
Add users when authorized

Authorized management users can create staff accounts and assign the appropriate access level.

3
Use the correct role

Give each user only the permissions required for their responsibilities within the property.

Access control: User-management options can vary by role, so staff may not see every administrative function shown in this tutorial.

Step 7

Reports & Insights

Reports turn day-to-day ticket activity into information managers can use to understand workload, response, recurring issues, and overall maintenance performance.

1
Select the reporting period

Choose the date range that matches the activity you want to review.

2
Review maintenance activity

Use ticket totals, statuses, priorities, categories, and completion information to understand what is happening across the property.

3
Look for patterns

Recurring categories, heavy technician workload, or changes in completion time can help identify areas that deserve attention.

Step 8

Understanding a Ticket Detail Page

The ticket detail page is the complete record for an individual maintenance request and should be the place your team records meaningful updates.

1
Review the issue

Confirm the location, description, priority, status, and assigned technician before beginning work.

2
Add useful updates

Use internal notes and attachments when they help document what was found or what work was performed.

3
Keep status accurate

Update the ticket as it moves through the maintenance process so managers can see its current state.

4
Complete the record

When the issue is resolved, make sure the final ticket information accurately reflects the completed work.

Step 9

Getting Support

If you run into a system issue or need help, use the Support area inside Maintenance Manager Pro so the request can be tracked and reviewed.

When submitting a support request

Choose the right category

Select the support category that best matches the issue you are experiencing.

Set the priority

Use an appropriate priority so truly urgent system problems can be identified quickly.

Explain the issue clearly

Include enough information to reproduce or understand the problem and provide your preferred contact method when requested.
