Frequency Types and Options
Frequency Types could be Daily, Weekly, Monthly, or Yearly. Most Frequency Types have options (Daily doesn't need them.)
- Daily
- Weekly
- repeat every N weeks (default = 1)
- multi-capable select on day of week (checkboxes?)
- Monthly
- repeat every N months (default = 1)
- repeat by
- day of month
- single-capable select on day of month (drop down from 1-31, with smarts enough to not show 29, 30, 31 when inapplicable?)
- Nth weekday of month (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, last)
- single-capable select on day of week (radio buttons?)
- multi-capable select on week of month (checkboxes?)
- Yearly
- repeat every N years (default = 1)
To get a Frequency Type that is not listed use the options to tweak one of the existing types. For example: for a quarterly event the Frequency Type = Monthly and the option would be to repeat every 3 months.
Using the start (effective) date an algorithm would need to be able to figure out what dates in an arbitrary date range (starting on or after the effective date) match the selected frequency.
Look at UI for google calendar repeating events for inspiration.
Fields needed for this would be something like:

- weekly_wednesday
- applies only to weekly
- weekly_thursday

- weekly_friday

- monthly_subtype
- day of month OR week of month
- day_of_month
- applies only to monthly -> day of month
- monthly_weekday
- applies only to monthly -> week of month
- monthly_first
- applies only to monthly -> week of month
- monthly_second
- applies only to monthly -> week of month
- monthly_third

- monthly_fourth
- applies only to monthly -> week of month
- monthly_fifth
- applies only to monthly -> week of month
- monthly_last
