Looking for a way to be automatically notified of approaching our past due items on your monday.com board? Using monday.com automations, you can now create a due date reminder by scheduling an automation based on a date or timeline column (whether it's set in Deadline Mode or not!).
There are a couple of ways to set up your due date reminders: (1) from your automations center or (2) directly from your date or timeline column menu. This article covers both methods.
How to add from the Automations Center
You can find a wide range of automation recipes under the "Notifications" tab of the automation center.
El parámetro Cuando puede configurarse para:
- Run exactly when the date arrives.
- Que programe la automatización para que se ejecute en un momento relativo.
- When a date has passed. This means the automation will run at midnight after the date has passed. This recipe does not work retroactively.
How to add from your column menu
You can also add a reminder directly from your date or timeline column! You will be presented with two different selections depending on whether your date column is set-up as a deadline.
- Date column isn't set-up as a deadline:
To set up reminders, simply select the drop-down carrot to open up the column menu settings and select "Set Date Reminders".
Se te dirigirá a la primera de las automatizaciones enumeradas, "Cuando llegue la fecha, notificar a alguien". La columna especificada se completará automáticamente. Solo tienes que elegir cuándo te gustaría que se ejecute la notificación y a quién te gustaría notificar.
- Date column is set up as a deadline mode:
Si ya vinculaste tu columna de fecha o cronograma con una columna de estado en el Modo de fecha límite, la configuración será un tanto diferente. Como antes, abre el menú de la columna. Verás la opción "Configurar recordatorios de fecha límite".
When clicked you'll be navigated to the recipe: "When date arrives and status isn't something, notify someone". Again, the column that you've selected will be pre-filled, as will the status column to which it is linked. You'll need to define the when field, as well as who you would like to be notified.
How to configure the "notify" field
The notify column can be customized to your team's needs. Click on your columns in the "Supported Fields" box to add a dynamic element to your automated notifications.
Column Support for "notify" field
The below column types are currently not supported in the "notify" field of the automation
- Fórmula
- Numeración automática
- Progreso
- Dependencia
- Vincular columna con columnas de otro tablero
So let's dive into a use case 😀
Use Case
When {date} has passed and {status} is {something}, {notify}{someone}{every time period}
Use case: A sales team needs to send client follow-up emails "x" days after a call. If the client email status isn't marked as done by the due date then a reminder will be sent to the Sale's lead at specified repeating times until the status is updated.
We will use the following automation recipe:
Remember! This recipe checks every day at midnight to see if any item's date has passed. If the date has passed, the automation will trigger.
