How to Add and Use an Adhoc Task for the Housekeeping Roster.

Overview

Adhoc Housekeeping Tasks can be created for Tasks that are not associated with any specific Category or Area, and can be assigned to a Housekeeper without a Reservation. 

As these tasks are "Adhoc", they can not be assigned to a Property, Category, Area, Rate Type, Derived Rate, Derived Property Rate Rule, Rate Table or Company. 

They also can not be assigned a Frequency for a Scheduled Task.   

Adhoc Tasks can be assigned a Task Time Allocation, and will show on all reports that display Housekeeping Tasks.
