Recurring Schedules

Book a client on a repeating cadence so their cleans turn up on the calendar automatically — with a different price for the first deep clean if you charge one, and the option to let new jobs appear hands-free as you complete them.

What it does

A schedule is a repeating booking rule for one client. Instead of adding each clean by hand, you set the service, how often it repeats and the price once — and Quickie keeps the next job (or the next two) booked for you. You can:

  • Repeat every N days, weeks, months or years — covering any service (windows, gutters, power-washing, etc.).
  • Charge a higher first-clean price (e.g. a deep initial clean) and a standard price for every clean after.
  • Choose how far ahead to keep booked: the next job only, or the next two jobs (so the customer can always see what's coming).
  • Change the cadence or price later (e.g. monthly → every 2 months) — only future bookings change; past and completed jobs are kept exactly as they were.
  • Remove a schedule when a client stops — future bookings are cancelled, history stays.

A client can have several schedules at once (e.g. windows monthly + gutters yearly).

Free vs Pro

Setting up schedules and the jobs they book is free on every plan. Automatic re-booking — where finishing a clean instantly books the next one with no action from you — is a Pro feature. On the free plan you simply re-open the schedule (or add the next job) when you're ready.

Where to find it

Open a client (Clients → Contacts → a name) and scroll to the Recurring schedules card, below the Details card.

Step by step

Add a schedule

  1. On the client's page, in Recurring schedules, click Add schedule.
  2. Choose the Service.
  3. Set Repeats every — a number and a unit (e.g. 1 Months = monthly, 6 Weeks = every 6 weeks).
  4. Enter the Price per clean. If the first visit costs more, add a First-clean price (leave blank to use the same price).
  5. Pick the First clean date (the cadence is measured from here).
  6. Choose Keep bookedNext job only or Next two jobs.
  7. (Optional) Add Notes.
  8. Click Create schedule. Quickie books the job(s) immediately — you'll see them on the calendar and the client's record.

Change a schedule (e.g. monthly → every 2 months)

  1. Click the pencil on the schedule.
  2. Adjust the cadence, price or anything else and Save changes.
  3. Future not-yet-done bookings are re-spaced to the new settings; completed and past jobs are untouched.

Remove a schedule

  1. Click the bin on the schedule and confirm.
  2. Future bookings are cancelled. Completed and past jobs are kept.

What each screen shows

  • Recurring schedules card: one row per schedule showing the service, cadence (e.g. Monthly, Every 2 months), the price (and first-clean price if set), how many it keeps booked, and Next due with how many more are booked. Edit (pencil) and remove (bin) sit on the right.
  • Add/Edit dialog: service, the "repeats every" number + unit, price and first-clean price, the first-clean date, the keep-booked choice, and notes.

Tips & good to know

  • The first-clean price only ever applies to the very first clean a schedule books. Every clean after uses the standard price.
  • Choosing Next two jobs is handy when customers like to see their next couple of visits in advance.
  • On Pro, completing a clean from My round automatically books the next one to keep your chosen number ahead — your round tops itself up as you work.
  • A schedule books date-only jobs (no fixed time). To pin a specific arrival time, open the job and set a time, or use the Route planner.
  • Need a one-off clean instead? Just use Add job on the client — schedules are only for repeating work.

Troubleshooting

  • No new job after I completed one (free plan): automatic top-up is a Pro feature. Re-open the schedule (or click into it) to book the next, or add the job manually.
  • Editing didn't move my completed jobs: that's intended — editing only changes future bookings.
  • The next date looks off after a gap: if a schedule lapsed, the overdue clean is booked for today (a catch-up), then the cadence continues from there.
