I use Automation for Jira and set up a scheduled event to trigger it.

Hi Claudia - Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

We just a process that is a little bit involved but gives some flexibility. 

We created a custom field called Recurring Need with options for Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly, Annually and Every 2 Years.

Then when an issue is marked Done and has one of the above values in that field, then we clone a new ticket and set the Due Date to whatever the parent ticket has plus the timeframe of the option chosen. For example a parent with a Due Date of August 1, 20019 that has a Recurring Need of Annually would clone a new issue with a Due Date of August 2, 2020. 

We do this in a post function on the transition to Done using the add-on JMWE.
