How to Set Up Recurring Tasks
Overview
Recurring tasks in ClickTime Australia allow you to automate repeated work items for specific sites and shifts. This ensures consistency, saves time, and keeps employees and contractors aligned on daily, weekly, or custom schedules.
ClickTime enables companies and organizations to create recurring tasks that can be assigned to specific sites and shifts.
When you create a recurring task, ClickTime will open a new dialog or window where you can specify the criteria for the recurrence.
Specification & Criteria
Specify the Site: Determine the site where the recurring task will be applied.
For Shifts After: Specify the time after which the recurring task will apply to shifts (e.g., tasks for early morning shifts or tasks for shifts starting after 6:00 PM).
End Date: Set an end date for the task, or leave it as "never" with no end date.
Repeat Frequency: Choose how often the tasks should repeat (e.g., every day or on specific days of the week).
Add New Group: Segregate your tasks into different groups, each with its own set of tasks or sub-tasks. For example, you can create a group named "Main Lobby" and add all the sub-tasks to be performed in the main lobby. Then, create another group named "First Floor" and add all the tasks related to the first floor under it.
