Tasks

Create a routine task list

Build the checklist your team works from, set how often each task repeats, and WashUp creates the tasks on the days you picked.

September 28, 2026

A skipped closing checklist shows up as a dirty bay at open. A routine task list is the same checks, in the same order, appearing on their own every day you set.

What you'll need

  • Available on the Bundle plan, or on a Custom plan that includes Tasks.
  • Super Admins and Admins build task lists. Team Members can open the Task Library and read what's there, but the buttons to create or edit a list aren't shown to them.

Create the list

To create a routine task list:

  1. Select Tasks in the side menu, then Task Library.
  2. Select Create New List, then Routine List.
  3. Select Start from scratch.
  4. Enter a Task List Name, plus a Task List Description if the list needs one.
  5. Set the Task Aging toggle for the whole list.
  6. Type each job under Task Name, adding a row with Add Task.
  7. Give every task a Frequency, then select Save Changes.

Set how often each task repeats

Frequency is required on every task in a routine list, and it sits right under the task's name as three tabs.

  • Daily—tick the weekdays it runs on, from Sun through Sat.
  • Weekly—repeat every 1 to 52 weeks, on the days you tick.
  • Monthly—repeat every 1 to 12 months, on a date or on a weekday such as the last Friday.

Drag a task by its handle to reorder the list. Task frequency and timing options explained covers the rest, including the time-of-day settings under Advanced Options.

Good to know
  • Task Aging is locked once the list is saved, so pick it deliberately. See Task Aging enabled vs disabled.
  • The save button reads Save Changes even the first time you create a list.
  • A Task List Description shorter than 3 characters is rejected and the form doesn't say why. Leave it blank or write a full line.

Common questions

Can I change it later?

Most of it, yes. Names, descriptions, and frequencies can all be edited. Task Aging is the exception and is locked once the list is saved.

Who can do this?

Only Admins and Super Admins build lists. Everyone at the location sees the tasks they produce.

Does this affect my other locations?

No. A task list belongs to one location. Duplicate it to reuse it somewhere else.
