# Scheduled and recurring forms

> Set forms to recur on a fixed cadence, see what's overdue at a glance, and start the next submission with everything pre-filled.

## New features

* **Recurring form schedules.** You can now put any published form template on a fixed cadence — for example, "weekly facility walkthrough every 7 days" — scoped to a specific location and pool. Manage them from the new **Form Schedules** page (available from **Custom Forms > Schedules**). Due dates are computed from the cadence and the most recently submitted linked form, so there's no separate task queue to keep in sync.
* **"Due" list for overdue forms.** A new **Forms Due** page surfaces every schedule that's past its next due date, with the template, location, pool, and how overdue it is. Use it as a daily worklist to see what still needs to be filled out.
* **One-click "Start form" from a schedule.** From either the schedules list or the due list, **Start form** deep-links into the new-submission flow with the template, location, pool, and originating schedule already pre-filled — no re-picking from dropdowns. Once you submit, the schedule automatically drops off the due list.

## Updates

* **New "manage" permission for form schedules.** Creating and deactivating schedules is gated behind the existing `form_submissions:manage` key, so managers can set up recurring forms without granting broader template-authoring rights. Day-to-day submitters continue to use `form_submissions:create` and `form_submissions:view`. Assign roles in [Users and Roles](/user-guide/users-and-roles).
* **Forms status page refreshed.** [Forms and Exports Status](/user-guide/forms-and-exports-status) now lists recurring forms as live and updates the "still planned" list accordingly.
