Tasks & Reminders Dashboard

Your dashboard displays both tasks (things you must do) and reminders (things you want to remember). Overdue items show in red. Upcoming items appear in yellow. Completed tasks turn green when checked, then disappear - keeping your view focused only on what still needs attention.

The HVAC filter replacement that's been overdue since February 3rd? It stays red and visible every time you open the dashboard - a persistent reminder that won't go away until the work is done.

Home maintenance is expensive when neglected and manageable when scheduled. LifeLedger Pro tracks every recurring task - from quarterly filter changes to annual inspections - ensuring nothing gets overlooked until expensive repairs force your attention.

During setup, LifeLedger Pro suggests common maintenance tasks based on typical homeownership needs. Accept what applies, skip what doesn't, and add custom items unique to your property. Within minutes, you have a complete maintenance schedule that runs automatically for years.

For seasonal tasks like lawn care (March through November) or pool maintenance (summer months only), you can specify exactly which months each task should appear - eliminating unnecessary reminders during off-season periods. This keeps your dashboard focused on what actually needs attention right now.

Common household maintenance tracked:
• HVAC filter changes (monthly, quarterly, or semi-annually)
• Furnace and air conditioner annual servicing
• Water heater maintenance and inspection
• Gutter cleaning (spring and fall)
• Smoke detector battery replacement
• Roof inspections after major weather events. Read more...
• Septic tank pumping (every 3-5 years)
• Chimney cleaning and inspection
• Deck sealing and staining
• Lawn equipment maintenance (mowers, snow blowers)
• Pool opening and closing
• Irrigation system winterization

Each task includes notes for service providers, typical costs, and maintenance history. Track when work was completed, who did it, and how much it cost - creating a valuable maintenance log that increases property value and helps budget future expenses.

For vacation homes and rental properties: Manage multiple properties in one workbook, each with separate maintenance schedules. Perfect for snowbirds who need to track seasonal tasks at different locations, or landlords managing several rental units with different maintenance cycles.

Missing oil changes voids warranties. Ignoring tire rotations costs hundreds in premature replacement. LifeLedger Pro tracks every vehicle service - keeping your cars, trucks, motorcycles, and RVs running reliably by never letting maintenance slip through the cracks.

Set maintenance intervals based on mileage, time, or both. The system tracks current mileage and calculates when service is due. Add notes about preferred mechanics, typical costs, and service history - creating a complete vehicle maintenance record that protects resale value and prevents expensive breakdowns.

Vehicle maintenance tracked automatically:
• Oil and filter changes (every 3,000-7,500 miles)
• Tire rotations and balancing
• Brake inspections and pad replacement
• Annual state inspections and emissions testing
• Battery testing and replacement (every 3-5 years)

For multiple vehicles, track each separately with individual maintenance histories and mileage counters. Perfect for families with several cars, car enthusiasts managing collector vehicles, or small businesses maintaining fleet vehicles.

Warranty protection: Many vehicle warranties require documented proof of regular maintenance. LifeLedger Pro creates that documentation automatically - recording every service date, mileage, and cost. If warranty coverage is ever questioned, you have complete records proving consistent maintenance compliance.

Forgetting a spouse's birthday. Missing an anniversary. Overlooking a grandchild's graduation. LifeLedger Pro ensures the moments that matter most never slip past unnoticed. Unlike Google Calendar, Outlook Calendar, and Yahoo Calendar that send one reminder then forget about it, LifeLedger Pro keeps important dates visible on your dashboard until you've taken action.

Phone calendar apps ping you the morning of an event - giving you no time to plan or prepare. LifeLedger Pro shows upcoming important dates weeks in advance, allowing thoughtful preparation instead of last-minute panic. See what's coming this week, this month, and this quarter - all at a glance.

For caregivers: Track medication schedules, doctor appointments, and health monitoring tasks for aging parents or family members with chronic conditions. Set daily, weekly, or monthly reminders that ensure consistent care without relying on memory alone.
