How Send Due Date Reminders works

5 steps, in order, on every run.

  1. Read current action itemsRead the board each weekday morning. Check current due dates and completion updates before choosing who needs a reminder.
  2. Find upcoming and late workSelect open items due in one to three calendar days without a reminder for their current due date. Gather overdue items for your follow-up.
  3. Email owners before deadlinesRecheck each item's status, due date, and owner before emailing. Skip items that no longer qualify and flag missing addresses for you.
  4. Record sent remindersWrite the current due date to the board after an owner's reminder is accepted for sending. Leave it unchanged if sending fails so the next check can retry.
  5. Send the late work listEmail you a linked list of open overdue items when needed. Send a separate exception email for missing owner addresses or failed reminders.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions about the Send Due Date Reminders:

When do owners get a due date reminder email?

Owners get an email for open items due in one to three calendar days. You set the team's time zone for the weekday 9 a.m. check.

Will completed items still get reminders?

No. Your team marks finished items Done, and the Agent rechecks completion before emailing. If a due date changes, the Agent uses the new date.

What happens if an item is late or has no owner email?

You get a linked list of open overdue items, including those without an owner email. You also get an exception email when an upcoming item has no usable address.

What happens if the board cannot be read?

You get an email explaining that the deadline check could not run. No owner reminders go out from that run.

What happens when the Agent is unsure?

It stops and asks you. The Agent does not guess when it reaches a decision you have not approved.

Can I review its work?

Yes. Every run creates a plain-language log that you can review and export. Logs are kept for twelve months.

What happens if I cancel?

The Agent stops at the end of the billing month and its tool connections are removed. Your run logs remain available for twelve months.
