Scheduling on-call issues

$

Ok - we have three groups that we are evaluating this server for.  Each group has a different number of members and a different schedule.

 

Group 1 - on-call duties rotate monthly (3 engineers, on call 3x a year).

Group 2 - on-call duties rotate every 3 weeks (3 engineers, on call every 3rd week)

Group 3 - on-call duties rotate every 10 weeks  (10 techs, on call, in order, every 10 weeks.)

 

So - if I setup the on-call schedule for a one time thing - for example the one month at a time, you natrually would click on the "Recur" optoin to have the on-call schedule repeat every 3rd month. Well, the result was NOT what I expected.  when I click the RECUR option, it (alert central) seems to IGNORES the on-call schedule, and only shows that person on call for 1 day.  Un-tick the check box, and the schedule shows that guy is on call EVERY DAY in the schedule (i.e. - 9/2/2013 to 9/30/2013).

 

Now - am I using the RECUR option incorrectly?  I would think if I click on the RECUR, its to setup a recurring schedule for this person, on this calendar, based on the dates provided, on the schedule provided.  Is this a bug, or does it work as intended, and I am off my rocker to have this feature?
