Adding Recurring Assignments

Adding assignments that occur on a regular basis is quite easy with Assignment Planner. You can add a lot of information just like in an assignment and you can specify how often and when the assignments should occur. This is especially helpful when you have, for example, reading assignments due every Wednesday or a paper due at the end of every month.

To Add a Recurring Assignment:

  1. Just click on the Add Recurring icon in the toolbar or select the menu File > Add Recurring Assignments.
  2. A panel will show up, allowing you to enter in all the information about your assignments.
    • When entering a title, you can enter %@, which will be replaced by the instance of the assignment. For example, entering "Homework %@" will result in having multiple assignments, titled "Homework 1", "Homework 2", "Homework 3", etc.



  3. You will be able to choose how your assignment repeats. You can choose when the period starts, when it ends and to repeat either weekly or monthly.
