How the task will be repeated?

How will I receive notification when the task will be re-created?
The task assignees will receive an email and web notification that a new task is assigned to them or simply you will be able to notice the new task in the tasks list area.
Stop a recurring task.
To stop a recurring task, you will need to edit the task and set the Repeat Every drop-down field to empty.
This feature requires the CRON job to be configured to work properly.
