http://doc.norang.ca/org-mode.html#ChecklistHandling describes a similar case. For minor (less than 5 minutes) subtasks like "Create folder, move mail there", I would not want that to show up in my agenda, but only the "real" task at hand: Archive Mail. #+BEGIN_SRC org * TODO Archive Mail [0/2] SCHEDULED: <2012-09-01 Sat +1m> :PROPERTIES: RESET_CHECK_BOXES: t :END: - [ ] Read and archive all mail (orgmode, Sent) - [ ] Create monthly folder and move mail there #+END_SRC >As you can see, subtasks are done, and I have set a repeater for the >scheduling for one month.

What is your org-todo-keywords sequence? Did you set org-todo-repeat-to-state? (Should not be necessary...)
