How to close a maintenance task

 
Why did I get a task to close a maintenance task? 

The task has been completed and has been automatically assigned to you because you are the Approval officer.

Review the Action history and Identified improvements to review what's been done to date. Then click Approve and close or Assign another task if further action is needed. Learn how to do this in the Task management section below.
