When an order is marked completed, VertiGIS FM generates new orders associated with the interval, based on the interval's scheduling frequency. In the example below, orders for the Removing Leaves and Sweeping, Vacuuming intervals are scheduled 6 weeks and 3 months after the Planned Date of the completed orders, respectively.

Completed and Newly Scheduled Orders
You cannot complete two orders generated by the same interval on the same date.
