Using PlanRadar

Create a Ticket

Overview

Tickets are used to create tasks with instructions to resolve issues and more.

Access & Permissions

Select Project and Location

Every ticket is saved to a Location — the term PlanRadar uses for a folder or a plan — in a specific project. A ticket on a folder has no pin position and appears in the list view only. You can move a ticket to a different location later, but not to a different project.

Select a project and location before creating a ticket:

  1. Open the Project and location selection menu
  2. Click Change project and select a different project
  3. Click the folder or plan the ticket belongs to, e.g. Ground Floor
  1. Tap the project name e.g. Office Complex 11
  2. Tap Tickets
  3. Tap the location selector
  4. Tap the folder or plan the ticket belongs to, e.g. Ground Floor  

The project and location selection menu with All Locations, folders, plans and BIM models

The Select location selector on mobile: the project, Show all tickets with the ticket count, and the folders and plans as a tree with Ground floor selected

Add Sub-Tickets

Create Tickets in Schedules

When managing the schedule of a project, it is possible to create new tickets directly in the schedules feature.

Set a Repetition Date

For tickets that need to be done regularly, such as weekly or monthly, it is possible to schedule a repetition date to automatically reopen those tickets.
