This is perfect for tasks that happen regularly, like monthly maintenance, weekly inspections, or yearly services. --- ### How to Create a Recurring Work Order ### Step 1 - Hover over "Work Orders" on the left side menu and click "Create New Work Order". ![](https://support.webcemeteries.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Oct-01-2025-02-34-07-4987-PM.png?width=644&height=924&name=image-png-Oct-01-2025-02-34-07-4987-PM.png) ### 2. Enable Recurrence - Check the **"Set as Recurring"** option. ![](https://support.webcemeteries.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-29-2025-05-18-26-3175-PM.png?width=670&height=213&name=image-png-Sep-29-2025-05-18-26-3175-PM.png) - This unlocks the recurrence settings below. ### 3. Configure the Recurrence Details  ![](https://support.webcemeteries.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-29-2025-05-19-30-9456-PM.png?width=670&height=144&name=image-png-Sep-29-2025-05-19-30-9456-PM.png) - **Start Date (Required):** The date the first work order will be created. - **Due After X Days:** The due date for the work order after it's creation. - Example: if the start date is on the 1st of the month, and it is due after 5 days, the work order due date will always be set to the 6th of the month. - **Recurrence Interval:** The number value for how often it repeats (e.g., every 2 weeks). - **Recurrence Type:** Choose if the recurrence is in **Days, Weeks, Months, or Years**. - **End Date (Optional):** Choose a final date for the recurrence to stop. - **Number of Occurrences (Optional):** Instead of an end date, you can stop the recurrence after a set number of times. ### 4. Save the Work Order Once you save, the system will automatically recreate the work order on the schedule you’ve defined. --- #### Example Use Cases - A **weekly landscaping check** every 7 days. - A **quarterly equipment inspection** every 3 months. - A **yearly report preparation** task every 12 months. --- Use recurring work orders to ensure important, repetitive tasks never slip through the cracks.  To Manage an existing recurrence, check out this article: [How to Manage a Work Order Recurrence](https://support.webcemeteries.com/how-to-manage-a-work-order-recurrence?hsLang=en) - [Getting Started](https://support.webcemeteries.com/getting-started?hsLang=en#main-content) - [User Management Overview](https://support.webcemeteries.com/getting-started?hsLang=en#user-management-overview) - [Settings Overview](https://support.webcemeteries.com/getting-started?hsLang=en#settings-overview) - [Management](https://support.webcemeteries.com/management?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Access and Usability](https://support.webcemeteries.com/management?hsLang=en#access-and-usability) - [Arboretum Module](https://support.webcemeteries.com/management?hsLang=en#arboretum-module) - [Books Module](https://support.webcemeteries.com/management?hsLang=en#books-module) - [Contacts & Customers Module](https://support.webcemeteries.com/management?hsLang=en#contacts-customers-module) - [Contracts Module](https://support.webcemeteries.com/management?hsLang=en#contracts-module) - [Deceased Module](https://support.webcemeteries.com/management?hsLang=en#deceased-module) - [Documents Overview](https://support.webcemeteries.com/management?hsLang=en#documents-overview) - [Dynamic Forms Overview](https://support.webcemeteries.com/management?hsLang=en#dynamic-forms-overview) - [Locations Module](https://support.webcemeteries.com/management?hsLang=en#locations-module) - [Maps](https://support.webcemeteries.com/management?hsLang=en#maps) - [Memorials Module](https://support.webcemeteries.com/management?hsLang=en#memorials-module) - [Ownership Module](https://support.webcemeteries.com/management?hsLang=en#ownership-module) - [Payment Processing](https://support.webcemeteries.com/management?hsLang=en#payment-processing) - [Reports](https://support.webcemeteries.com/management?hsLang=en#reports) - [Reservations Module](https://support.webcemeteries.com/management?hsLang=en#reservations-module) - [Work Orders Module](https://support.webcemeteries.com/management?hsLang=en#work-orders-module) - [Invoices](https://support.webcemeteries.com/management?hsLang=en#invoices) - [Passare](https://support.webcemeteries.com/management?hsLang=en#passare) - [Sales](https://support.webcemeteries.com/sales?hsLang=en#main-content) - [General Access in Enterprise Sales](https://support.webcemeteries.com/sales?hsLang=en#general-access-in-enterprise-sales) - [Contracts in Enterprise Sales](https://support.webcemeteries.com/sales?hsLang=en#contracts-in-enterprise-sales) - [Reservations in Enterprise Sales](https://support.webcemeteries.com/sales?hsLang=en#reservations-in-enterprise-sales) - [Searching in Enterprise Sales](https://support.webcemeteries.com/sales?hsLang=en#searching-in-enterprise-sales) - [Public Tools](https://support.webcemeteries.com/public-tools?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Remember My Journey](https://support.webcemeteries.com/public-tools?hsLang=en#remember-my-journey) - [Mobile App](https://support.webcemeteries.com/public-tools?hsLang=en#mobile-app) - [Tours](https://support.webcemeteries.com/public-tools?hsLang=en#tours) - [Forever Plot](https://support.webcemeteries.com/public-tools?hsLang=en#forever-plot) - [Uncategorized](https://support.webcemeteries.com/uncategorized?hsLang=en) - [Website Integrations](https://support.webcemeteries.com/website-integrations?hsLang=en) [![file-logo](https://support.webcemeteries.com/hs-fs/hubfs/file-logo.png?width=400&height=67&name=file-logo.png "file-logo")](http://webcemeteries.com) 277 Fair St., Suite 1, Kutztown, PA 19530 [mailto:support@webcemeteries.com](mailto:support@webcemeteries.com) Copyright © 2024, webCemeteries ™
