Setting recurring tasks.

There are several ways to set recurring tasks, depending on the method you choose for creating your tasks:

Via the Planning Dialog

You can set a recurring task for an existing task or a new task via the Planning Dialog. Follow these steps:

STEP 1 Open the Planning Dialog

You can open ‘Planning Dialog’ in two ways:

  • From the Schedule Board, click in the toolbar to open the Planning Dialog.

  • Or, click on a specific date or drag across a range of dates to open the Planning Dialog.

You can also open the Planning Dialog from the Calendar Board.

STEP 2 Choose a task

In the Planning Dialog, you can:

  • Search for an existing work item by entering the summary or work item key in the search bar.

  • Create a new work item by clicking the button

STEP 3 Enable recurrence

Once the task is selected, click on the Repeat field to configure the recurrence:

  1. Specify how often the task should repeat:

  • Daily: The task repeats every day.

  • Weekly: The task repeats once a week, typically on the same day of the week.

  • Bi-weekly: The task repeats every two weeks, typically on the same day of the week every other week.

  • Monthly: The task repeats once a month, typically on the same day of the month.

  1. Set the “Until” date to define when the recurrence stops. (The ‘Until’ date must be the same as or later than the task’s end date).

  2. You're also selecting the days of the week that the task should repeat on
