Overview
SnapInspect has a Recurring Schedules feature that introduces more flexibility, better visibility, and improved automation for inspections.
This guide walks through the new functionality and how to use it effectively.
Creating a Recurring Schedule
To create a recurring inspection:
Navigate to the Assets tab
Click Schedule Inspection
Select your checklist (e.g. Roof Inspection Checklist)
Choose your inspection date
Configure reminders as needed
Enable Recurring Schedule
You will now see the updated recurring schedule interface.
Daily, Weekly or Monthly Recurrence
Set inspections to repeat every day, week, or month
Define an optional end date using Close Schedule On
Close Schedule On (End Date)
This allows you to define when recurring schedules should stop.
Use case examples:
Seasonal work (e.g. January → March)
Short-term projects
Limited contract periods
Once the selected date is reached:
Recurring schedules stop automatically
Future inspections are cancelled
2. Weekly Recurrence with Custom Days
You can now:
Repeat every X weeks
Select specific days of the week
Example:
Repeat every 1 week
Select Monday to Friday only
This eliminates the need to include unnecessary days (like weekends) in your schedule.
3. Future Schedule Visibility
The interface also shows:
All upcoming scheduled inspections
Real-time updates as changes are made
If you adjust or delete occurrences:
The future schedule list updates instantly
You can clearly see how your recurrence is affected
4. Monthly Recurrence with Month Selection
You can now:
Repeat inspections monthly
Exclude specific months
Example:
Run inspections January → April
Skip May
Resume in June
How it works:
When April’s inspection is completed, the next one is automatically scheduled for June
Skipped months are fully excluded from scheduling
This is especially useful for:
Seasonal operations
Reduced activity periods
Best Practices
Use weekly recurrence to align with working days (e.g. Mon–Fri)
Use monthly exclusions for seasonal downtime
Always configure email reminders for better visibility
Use manual trigger to validate setups before going live
