Setting up repeating task schedules

For: Admins and Managers

Repeating schedules let you automate recurring work so tasks are created and assigned automatically — no manual input each time. Schedules can repeat on a fixed date cycle or trigger based on a compliance field like odometer reading or usage hours.


Schedule types

Site App Pro supports two types of repeating schedules:

Type

How it works

Example

Date-based

Repeats at a fixed time interval — daily, weekly, monthly, or custom.

Monthly vehicle safety inspection

Compliance-based

Triggers when a tracked compliance field — like odometer or usage hours — reaches a set value.

Service every 500 usage hours; RUC renewal every 1,000 km


Setting up a repeating schedule

Repeating schedules are configured in the Schedule & Notify section during task creation.

  1. Log in to the Admin Console

  2. Navigate to Equipment and select Task List

  3. Click Create new task and complete the Task Details section

  4. Click Next to go to Schedule & Notify

  5. Toggle on Repeats

  6. For a date-based schedule, set the repeat interval — for example, every 3 months

  7. For a compliance-based schedule, select the compliance field (for example, Odometer) and set the interval — for example, every 1,000 km

  8. Set the Early Access Threshold — how far in advance of the due date or value the task becomes available to start

  9. Click Next, complete the Files & Forms section, and click Create Task

Note: For compliance-based schedules, the relevant field must be enabled on the equipment category first. Go to Equipment > Settings, select the category, click Edit Properties, and toggle on the required field.


Editing a repeating schedule

Changes to a repeating schedule apply to future and planned instances only — completed tasks are not affected.

  1. Log in to the Admin Console

  2. Navigate to Equipment and select Task List

  3. Find and open the task

  4. Click the Schedule & Notify tab

  5. Click Edit Schedule under Original Schedule

  6. Select Continue to open the original task

  7. Make your changes and save
