Equipment points

Updated September 30, 2026

Maintenance can earn raffle tickets, the same ones your team earns from chores. Clinic admins turn points on and decide what each kind of job is worth.

Turn points on

  1. Go to Clinic Settings → Equipment → Reminders & alerts.
  2. Turn on Give points for maintenance.
  3. Set a value for each size of job. Changes save as you go.

With points off, services are still logged, just without tickets.

What a service is worth

Bigger jobs are worth more. houndkit judges the size of a job by how often the service comes round:

TierService repeatsStarting value
Weeklyevery 10 days or less1
Monthly11 to 45 days4
Quarterly46 to 150 days4.5
Annualevery 151 days or more5

Change any value you like, up to 20. Tenths are fine, so 0.5 of a ticket works.

Who gets them

When a service is logged, everyone picked under Who did it splits what it's worth. Logging three services at once earns the total for all three.

These don't earn points:

  • A vendor or outside tech typed in the vendor box
  • A service ticked off from a team space's Equipment due card
  • An unscheduled service logged with no services ticked

Points count toward the same raffle as chores.

Note

Changing these values only affects services logged from now on. Points already awarded stay as they are.
