# Set Up Recurring Jobs and Automated Maintenance Schedules

> Automate repeat service visits — from monthly pest control to quarterly HVAC inspections — using Vynta's recurring jobs feature.

Some jobs happen on a schedule. Instead of creating the same work order every week or month, set up a recurring job and Vynta creates them automatically.

## Setting Up a Recurring Job

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open an existing work order">
    Start with a completed or scheduled work order that represents the job you want to repeat.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Click Make Recurring">
    Found in the work order actions menu.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set the recurrence pattern">
    Choose how often the job repeats:

    * **Daily** — every N days
    * **Weekly** — on specific days of the week
    * **Monthly** — on a specific date each month
    * **Quarterly** — every 3 months
    * **Yearly** — once a year
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set the end condition">
    Choose when the recurrence stops:

    * After N occurrences
    * On a specific date
    * Never (until you stop it)
  </Step>

  <Step title="Save">
    Vynta creates the next occurrence automatically based on the schedule.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Managing Recurring Jobs

Go to **Jobs** > **Recurring** to see all recurring job templates:

* **Pause** a recurring job temporarily
* **Stop** a recurring job permanently
* **Edit** the pattern (changes apply to future occurrences)
* **Skip** the next occurrence

## What Gets Created

Each time a recurring job triggers, Vynta creates a new work order with:

* The same customer and service address
* The same job type and description
* The same assigned technician (if specified)
* A new scheduled date based on the pattern

The new work order is independent — editing or completing it doesn't affect the recurring template.

## Common Patterns

| Use case                 | Pattern                         |
| ------------------------ | ------------------------------- |
| Weekly pest control      | Weekly, every Monday            |
| Monthly HVAC inspection  | Monthly, 1st of the month       |
| Quarterly safety audit   | Quarterly, on the 15th          |
| Annual equipment service | Yearly, on the anniversary date |

## FAQ

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Can I change the technician for a specific occurrence?">
    Yes. Open the individual work order and reassign it. The next occurrence will use the original technician.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="What if the scheduled date falls on a weekend?">
    Vynta shifts the job to the next business day.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Can I set different times for different occurrences?">
    Not yet. The recurrence pattern is uniform. For varying schedules, create separate recurring jobs.
