A recurring booking is one that occurs more than once at regular intervals e.g. every Wednesday at 2pm, or on the first Saturday of every month.
Only standard services can be made into a recurring booking and are shown in your Appointedd calendar alongside all your other bookings.
A recurring booking can be identified easily as circular arrow icon will be in the top left-hand corner of the booking.

Top tip
When making recurring bookings, bear in mind the customer will receive an email confirmation listing all the dates of future bookings, so it's a good idea to arrange them in smaller series, even if you know it will be continuing for the foreseeable future. This will stop your customer being overwhelmed with too many future bookings dates.
It will also make invoicing more organized and manageable, as each individual occurrence of a booking generates its own invoice.
Please note that if you have the setting to send an .ics file when a booking is created on, that only the first booking in the recurring set will show in the customer's external calendar.
