A logical place to create a new scheduled task is from the Scheduled Tasks view, but this function is not available. Currently, to create a task a user must first select the update package, computer or computer group to act on and then use the right-click menu to run a task, fill out the wizard details and finally set the schedule. While it's convenient to have a scheduler at the end of the task wizard, its not an intuitive place to look for a user who knows from the beginning that he wants to create a recurring task.
For me, the intuitive way to create a recurring task is to go to the Scheduled Tasks view, right click and Create New Task, then select from a list of available tasks, configure the task details and finally set the schedule.
