Re-occurring Reminders - To Do List, Organizer, Checklist, PIM, Time and Task Management software for better personal and business productivity

fcms Visitor Posts: 2 Points: 1 Joined: 05/08/2009	#1 05/30/2009 23:20:24 Is there a way to create automatic, re-occurring reminders during the period of time before a task ends? For example: I want to setup automatic email task reminders for every four days, for a task that is due in three weeks.

Yes, it is possible. Please do the following:
1. Double click on a task to edit it or click 'Ins' to create a new one.
2. Go to tab 'General'
3. Check the option 'Due Date' and 'Recurrence'
4. Click on the right button in Recurrence field
5. In time interval select 'Daily'
6. Click 'Next'
7. Set Start Date
8. Click 'Next'
9. In 'Daily' section enter '4' (Every 4 days)
10. Click 'Next'
11. In 'End of Recurrence' enter the task due date (by which the task recurrence should end).
12. Click 'Next' and 'Finish'

Please find instructions how to send reminders by email here (they are the same as for sending reminders to the cellphone):

I believe you are describing the process to create a reoccurring task.

I want reoccurring reminders only.

I want a single task that will be completed once to have reoccurring reminders. Is this possible?

However, I have added your suggestion to our feature request list so our developers could discuss the possibility of adding it to the program. Thank you very much for your suggestion.
