Overview
The Quick Edit Fields panel gives technicians a dedicated, tabbed view for quick-editing a component's fields and its tasks' fields on mobile, matching the web experience.
Accessing Quick Edit Fields
Tap the Assets tab in the bottom navigation bar.
Tap an asset, then tap Components.
Switch the Components tab to Grid view using the view-toggle icon.
Tap a component tile — this opens the Quick Edit screen.
NOTE: This only works from Grid view. In List view (the default), tapping a component opens the regular Edit Component screen instead, which has no path to Quick Edit Fields.
How to Quick-Edit Component and Task Fields
Steps:
From the Quick Edit screen, tap the sliders icon in the top-right corner to open Quick Edit Fields.
Tap the Component tab to edit fields on the component.
Tap the Task tab to edit fields on the component's tasks.
Tap Save to apply your changes.
Understanding Required Fields
Fields marked as required are enabled by default and cannot be turned off from this panel, so a component or task always has the information Redlist needs to track it.
Use Cases
A technician correcting a single field in the field switches Components to Grid view, taps the component tile, opens Quick Edit Fields from the sliders icon, and switches between Component and Task tabs as needed.
Best Practices
Switch to Grid view first: Quick Edit Fields is only reachable from a component tile in Grid view, not from the Edit Component screen you'd reach in List view.
Confirm which tab you're on: Component and Task are separate tabs — double-check before editing.
Don't try to disable required fields: If a field won't turn off, it's required by design.
Troubleshooting
Issue: There's no way to reach Quick Edit Fields from a component.
Solution:
Check that the Components tab is set to Grid view, not List view — the sliders icon that opens Quick Edit Fields only appears from a Grid-view component tile.
Issue: A field won't turn off.
Solution:
Check whether it's marked required — required fields stay enabled and can't be disabled from Quick Edit Fields.
Summary
Quick Edit Fields gives a focused, tabbed way to quick-edit component and task fields on mobile, reached from a component tile in Grid view via the sliders icon.
