Hello, I'm setting up MLO at work, and I run Payroll twice a month. Is there a way to setup a recurring task for two days in one month, i.e. the 10th AND 25th of each month? Thank you.

I don't think there is any way to set a single task to recur twice in a month.

A simple solution would be to create two separate tasks, one recurring monthly on day 10 of every month and one recurring monthly on day 25 of every month.

Another option is to create a task that recurs monthly on day 25 of every month.  (In the advanced options, make sure to set "Reset all subtasks to uncompleted" and "Disable automatic recurrence.  I think these are the default settings.)
Create a subtask under that monthly task.  Set the due date of the subtask to day 10 of next month, with no recurrence.

The subtask will be available due on the 10th. When you complete that task, then the parent task will become available due on the 25th.
When the parent task is completed, it will reset to the 25th of next month, and the subtask will reset to the 10th day of next month.
