How do Reminders work?

In every Users-Edge Organizer, there are default reminder fields for every entry.  This is so you can customize a reminder on each and every entry.  Every Users-Edge Reminders edit window has two areas.  One is for the individualized Organizer data (columns) and the other is for the reminder fields. 

In the Birthdays example below, there are 4 customized Organizer fields (or columns), Name, Birthday, Last gift, and Notes.

This example illustrates how a user can send a recurring reminder to himself and his brother and sister that Mother's birthday is in 11 days.  Only the user will see what he purchased lst and the Notes for Mom.  Only the MyMessage information gets emailed and displayed in the users Reminders page.

The following fields are included in every Organizer:  Next Alert, MyMessage, Alert Enabled, AlertEmails, Email Enabled, and selections for making the reminder reoccur automatically.

1)  Next alert for this entry:  This is the date and time you can set for the next date/time to be reminded.  You can type in a date and time, or use the pop up calendar.

2)  MyMessage:  This is the information you want displayed in your reminders page or emailed.

3)  Alert Enabled:  This enables the Reminder.

4)  AlertEmails:  This is the email address, or multiple addresses that the reminder will be sent to.

5)  Email Enable:  This enables the email function of this individualized reminder.

6)  Remind Me Every:  These options allow you to set reminders to reoccur at the selected intervals.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As you can see, Users-Edge reminders can be customized to display and/or send unique information on each item in an Organizer.
