Maintenance schedules on one item
Turn maintenance tracking on for an item, see its recurring service tasks, and find where to change them.
Where to find it
Fleet → open an item → Add-ons & Maintenance tab
The Maintenance Schedule card on an item shows the recurring service tasks (like an oil change or a safety inspection) that are set up for it, and whether Renta tracks maintenance on it at all. You do not type the tasks in here. Tasks are created and changed on the Maintenance page, usually by applying a template.
Where to find it
Fleet → open an item → Add-ons & Maintenance tab (step 5 of 6).

How it works
- Enable maintenance tracking — a switch, off by default for a new item. Turn it on for individual machines (UTVs, dirt bikes and the like) so Renta can track engine hours, miles, utilization days or uses. Leave it off for bulk gear such as helmets or paddles.
- Maintenance Schedule — once tracking is on, this card lists each task as a small tile with the task name and its interval, for example "Every 50 hours". The tiles are read-only; you cannot add, edit or remove a task from this card.
- Manage maintenance tasks → — on a saved item, saves your changes and opens the Maintenance page filtered to this item, where you add or change tasks. On a new item the card says "Save this item first, then set up its maintenance tasks in the Maintenance tab." On a saved item with no tasks yet it says "No maintenance tasks configured yet" with a link to the Maintenance tab.
- Out of date with template — an amber note that names any of this item's tasks that no longer match the template they were applied from. See Maintenance templates.
- With tracking on, the meters your tasks use (hours, miles, utilization days or uses) become fields on each unit, so counted usage can trigger a "due" or "overdue" status.
Example
A jet ski's schedule might include "Engine service" every 50 hours. You turn on Enable maintenance tracking on the jet ski, click Manage maintenance tasks →, and apply a template or add the task there. Back on the item, a tile reads "Engine service, Every 50 hours". As each unit's hours go up, Renta tracks how close it is to the 50-hour mark.
Good to know
- Due and overdue tracking and service logs happen per physical unit — see Tracking one physical unit's condition and history.
- If tracking is off, the card reads "Maintenance tracking disabled. Toggle on, then set up tasks in the Maintenance tab."
