Recurring Tasks
Tasks that repeat daily, weekly, every two weeks or monthly

Repeat: Daily, Weekly, Biweekly or Monthly.
What is recurring tasks?
A recurring task repeats on a schedule. In BusyBee.Day a series is one task that moves forward each time you complete it, so a missed day leaves one overdue task rather than a stack of them.
