How to Create a Recurring Job in FieldTask

Learn how to create a recurring job and configure how often it repeats in FieldTask.

FieldTask allows you to create recurring jobs that automatically repeat according to a schedule you define. You can create a recurring job from several areas of the platform:

• Quick Jobs

• Dispatch

• Scheduling

• All Jobs

Regardless of where you start, you will be taken to the same Job Creation form.

Set Up the Recurring Job

Fill out the Job Creation form as you would when creating a single-day job. The difference is that you will need to configure a Recurring Schedule for the job.

• Click Recurring Schedule.

You can then configure how and when the job should repeat.

Choose the Recurrence Method

FieldTask gives you three recurrence methods:

• Daily
• Weekly
• Monthly

Daily Recurrence

For a Daily recurring job, you can choose how many days should pass before the job repeats.

For example, you can set the job to repeat every 1 day, every 2 days, every 3 days, and so on.

Weekly Recurrence

For a Weekly recurring job, you can choose:

• The day of the week on which the job should repeat.
• The number of weeks between each occurrence.

Monthly Recurrence

For a Monthly recurring job, you can choose between two options:

• Dates — Choose the specific dates of the month on which the job should repeat.
• Days — Choose the specific day or day occurrence within the month on which the job should repeat.

Set the End Date

Once you have configured the recurrence pattern:

• Choose the End Date for the recurring schedule.

This determines how long FieldTask will continue creating the job according to the recurring schedule.

Create the Recurring Job

Once you have entered all the required job information and configured the recurring schedule:

• Click Create Job.

FieldTask will create the job according to the recurrence settings you selected until the specified End Date.
