The Action reminders form lists any outstanding actions:
At various times, the Action reminder pop-up form shows the employee responsible the actions to be carried out. Each time you receive an alert about an outstanding action, you need to use the Mark as Read option from the Edit menu to indicate that you have noted the action. You can mark one action, but also multiple actions at the same time. Once you have marked the action as Read, the action will be removed from the Action reminders form. If the status is still 'Not started' at the next alert time, the action will be displayed on the form again.
You can disable alerts for each individual action, so that they will automatically be marked as Read.
Alerts of actions to be performed are shown at the following times:
New |
When the action has been created. |
Reminder |
Some time before the action should be started. Use the Reminder field on the General tab of the action to set the time between the alert and the time of the action. |
Start date/time exceeded |
The action should have been started by now. The alert appears if the start date and time have been exceeded but the end date and time have not yet been exceeded. |
End date/time exceeded |
The action should have been performed by now. The alert appears if both the start date/time and the end date/time have been exceeded. |
Note: An alert cannot be displayed until the previous alerts have been marked as Read. For instance, if the execution of an action should have started, the corresponding alert will be displayed only if the 'Reminder' alert has been marked as Read.
