Set up recurrence frequency and options for project templates

You can set up the recurrence frequency for project templates. The recurrence frequency lets Onvio know how often the project will occur and when the project will be due. You can set Project and Task Generation Options on project templates and on individual projects.

Before you start

Make sure you're assigned to a permission group that has
Project Templates
enabled.

    • For example, for biweekly payroll work, you can create a project template that will be due every two weeks on Friday (weekly pattern, due every 2 weeks, on Fridays).
