Send Reminder using the Form Dates

Avatar

Level 2

Hi all.

I don't know what is the best way to send reminders (emails) checking the Form dates .

For example:

There is a task assign where the user enter 5 dates (date 1, date 2, date 2.... etc)

Then, I need to send emails to "Xpath user" when the system date  is:  "date 1" - 24 hrs (for example).  The same with date 2 , date 3... etc.

How can I to do it?

Need I to write the dates in Database?

Some Ideas?

Thanks a lot.

You could use a gateway with a branch for each email that will be sent. Put a Wait Point before the send email step. Set the days to wait as an XPath expression using get-days-from-dateTime-difference(current-date(), Form Date). Subtract 1 for your minus 24 hours.

Thanks !

I'll try  that you tell  me.

The process continue if I select (NO WAIT in the branch), right

Thanks
