Common question
Why don’t all my future recurring tasks appear right away?
If you create a recurring task, e.g. “Clean car every Sunday”, PAM will only show the 'next' upcoming task. Once you complete this Sunday’s task, PAM will then create the task for the following Sunday.
This is designed to prevent multiple copies of the same task from sitting overdue if you don’t mark them complete. When you finishing one task, PAM will add the next task for the following date automatically.
