Step 1:
Navigate to "settings" and click on "Field definition (Objects)":
Click on "Create Field" and select "Reminder" from the field types:
Assign a field name e.g. "Maintenance reminder/next inspection date" and define the remaining settings for the field and click "create Field":
Step 2:
Requirement:
You need to observe the object.
Observing Objects:
Navigate to the list of "Objects"
It is best to filter the objects which you want to observe (which is a requirement for the activation of the reminder function)
To do this, select your objects and use the mass function "Start observing"
You can tell if an object is observed by the fact that at least one "1" appears next to the eye-icon in the detailed view in each object:
If you click on the eye-icon, you can also see who else is observing the object and add more people
Now navigate in the detailed view of your object and to your newly created reminder field:
set the date to the day you want to get the reminder notification
Tip:
We recommend setting the date not exactely on the day where the inspection is due but rather some days earlier. The exact inspection day can be noted in a seperate field without a reminder function.
on the selected day you will receive a notification on the message component of the software
at 1 a.m. the reminder fields will be checked
at 2 a.m. an e-mail is sent to you that there are nwe messages in the seventhings software
