Presently, Reminder alerts are linked to a specific user ID - if that user is no in, the dates can pass without invoices being sent.

 

Apart from having the option to reminder a specific user, it would be good to have it remind 'every' user so reminders are not missed

Thanks for the idea xAndy. Having a system wide preference or the ability to notify multiple users of reminders is certainly a feature we could look at adding in a later release. We would like to gauge some demand for this. Please add a vote and any further suggestions.

System wide reminders would be very helpful where the bookeeping process is maintained by people job sharing - and employers must facilitate this if they can.

 

Two (or more) people may be responsible for the accounts - and as they do 2 to 4 days a week its not possible to give them a shared identity to receive reminders that they only use on their days in.  if the days overlap (as in my case) I need separate identities for both people - but they the dated reminders dont show on the date for the person doing the work that day.

This is good idea so the manager of the accounts person/bookkeeper can be notified as well.

Hey Guys,

                   Be great if we could specify multiple people or a group of people to be notified for reoccurring transactions on the due dates. i.e. Accounts. Operations. All etc. Rather then just a single individual (P.S I know I put the first post in the wrong place Smiley Happy)

One way is to implement this is user groups which could be also be used to control the security of various options

totally agree, was just searching on how to notify ALL users or specific users.

I job share and if my off week the other lady processes the entry then when I am back in it gets duplicated.

Causing lots of frustration

SO 5 years later and I still can't notify multiple users?????
