The Non-Repeating vs. Repeating report shows how many of the work orders created in the date range are on a repeating schedule, and how many are one-time tasks.
Repeating work orders are associated with preventive maintenance, and related increases in efficiency. A Repeating Ratio of about 80% is a good goal to aim for.
The target Repeating Ratio varies by industry. It’s normal to see more non-repeating work orders and a lower Repeating Ratio in industries with higher rates of reactive maintenance. For example, facilities management or hospitality.

How to Read This Report​
Use the Non-Repeating vs. Repeating report to assess how much of your team's work is scheduled in advance versus handled on a one-off basis. The key metric to watch is the ratio of Repeating to Non-Repeating work orders.
- A high ratio of Repeating and Non-Repeating work orders generally indicates a more proactive maintenance operation.
- When the ratio is low, it may signal that your team is handling more unplanned, reactive work than expected.
