# Create, edit or delete a maintenance job

### Create a maintenance job

To add a maintenance job, follow these simple steps: go to the “Maintenance” section, then click “New maintenance”.

For each job, you can enter the following information:

- The **property or building**,
- The **tenancy**,
- The **type**,
- The **subject**,
- The **priority**,
- The **status**,
- The **description**,
- The **availability**,
- The **start date** and the **completion date** (once the date has passed, the job turns <span class="label label-warning">Overdue</span>),
- The **contractor** and their **email address and phone number**,
- The **photos** attached,
- The **documents** attached.

The contractor, tradesperson or anyone else can be notified as soon as the job is created.
