Dear ArcGIS Workforce

 

our customer is missing repeat option for assignment in Workforce Dispatcher console. 

 

For example there is a task, that you much check fire-extinguisher every week. So you create an assignment for a first week, but you don´t have an option to set repeat for example for every Wednesday. 

 

It seems that Python API could provide a workaround, but it would be better to have it in the console itself since not every dispatcher knows the Python. I would ease the management of repeating tasks.

 

Thank you.

Vladimir,

This request is in our backlog but has not been assigned to a release.  You are correct, the way to address this requirement is through the Python API.

Really need this function.

This would be an amazing function to have. It would take a lot of work off of the dispatcher's plate

This would definitly be an improvement. I consider it to be a more or less basic feature. 

Why has this not been implemented if it has been on the backlog for three years..?
