Reminders by email
ForAdministration
A daily run sends a reminder one week before the deadline and weekly afterwards; when overdue, the manager is reminded too.
Why#
Deadlines only help if someone reminds people of them.
How it works#
- 1Nothing to do: a daily run sends the reminders by itself.
- 2By hand: under “Assignments” or “My team” click “Remind”.
- 3If the feature is off, the deadlines remain visible, only no emails are sent.
Settings and switches#
- Switchable per tenantDefault: onModule: Mitarbeiter-Onboarding
What the daily run does — in this order#
- Take over course completions (nobody is reminded of something they finished yesterday).
- Assign new employees their automatic learning paths.
- Expiring mandatory training: open the next cycle.
- Remind: “due soon” once, seven days before the deadline; “overdue” every seven days after the deadline, then also to the manager; a new refresher cycle announces itself once.
Test addresses and accounts without an email address receive nothing — they are noted as “skipped”.
Tips#
- Every attempt — sent, skipped, failed — is logged; the log is in the audit report.
