# Schedule Recurring Shifts using Job Recurrence Schedules

Job Recurrence Schedules provide an easy way to schedule multiple future Job shifts. You determine when and how often the shifts occur.

![Note](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-sfdo-volunteers_for_salesforce-264-0-0-production-enus/1854165a-1e96-498b-9cfb-c6516fed9d92/images/icon_note.png)

Note Watch the Nonprofit Salesforce How-To Series video: [Create a Job Recurrence Schedule](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i29AdNl97gg).

1. In the Campaign's Volunteer Jobs related list, click on the Job name.
2. On the Job detail page, click the Related tab.
3. In the Job Recurrence Schedules related list, click **New**.
    
    ![New button on the Job Recurrence Schedules related list](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-sfdo-volunteers_for_salesforce-264-0-0-production-enus/1854165a-1e96-498b-9cfb-c6516fed9d92/volunteers_for_salesforce/images/new_job_recurrence_schedule.png)
4. Define how the Job and its Shifts repeat.
    
    - **Days of the Week**—The day(s) of the week that the event occurs.
    - **Weekly Occurrence**—How often the event occurs (every week, every other week, the first week of the month, second week of the month, and so on).
    - **Scheduled Start Date and Time**—The date of the first event in the series and what time each event starts.
    - **Scheduled End Date**—Date of the last event in the series (if there are a finite number of events). Leave this field blank if there is no end date.
        
        ![Note](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-sfdo-volunteers_for_salesforce-264-0-0-production-enus/1854165a-1e96-498b-9cfb-c6516fed9d92/images/icon_note.png)
        
        Note V4S only creates future Shifts for a certain number of months, specified in the Job Future Months V4S setting. Your admin can adjust this value. For more information, see [Configure Scheduling of Recurring Jobs and Volunteers](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sfdo.v4s_setup_config_recurring_jobs_vols.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "Automatic scheduling of Jobs and volunteers into the future saves a ton of repetitive data entry.").
    - **Duration**—How long, in hours, the event lasts.
    - **Desired Number of Volunteers**—The maximum number of volunteers who can sign up for each Shift.

5. Click **Save**.

You can [confirm the newly-created Shifts on the Shift Calendar](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sfdo.v4s_user_create_shifts.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "If there are multiple dates or times when you need volunteers for a Job, you can set up Shifts so you can track which volunteers are coming when."). You can also set up a corresponding Volunteer Recurrence Schedule if you have volunteers who want to set up a recurring schedule based on the recurring Shifts.
