Every time a contract is signed (using Tomorro or by storing an already signed contract), you'll find a reminder automatically created by Tomorro for you in the project.
This automatic reminder is a "1 month before notice" reminder.
And as explained in this article, in addition to this automatic reminder, you can create custom reminders to keep track of the deadlines of your contracts.
When are reminders triggered?
All reminders, the automatic as your custom ones, are triggered in the morning of the day.
So if you have created a reminder for 01/08/2022, it will be triggered on 01/08/2022 at 9am.
How are reminders triggered?
You can receive reminders:
by email - on the email address you've signed up to Tomorro with, and/or
in your notifications in Tomorro -> check the small bell next to your name, when it has a red flag indicating new events.
To make sure you don't miss any reminder, you can manage your emails notifications by clicking on your Name (bottom left) > My account > Notifications;
More information here: Customise my notifications.
When is the automatic reminder triggered? How does it work?
This automatic reminder is automatically set up to be triggered 1 month before prior notice.
Let's take an example:
You have a contract starting 01/01/2022 and ending 31/12/2022, with a 2 months prior notice.
The prior notice being 2 months, it starts on 01/11/2022.
The auto reminder set up by Tomorro is 1 month before prior notice.
The reminder will then be triggered 1 month before 01/11/2022 so on 01/10/2022.
And if my contract does not have notice period or has no fixed duration?
If there's no notice period: the automatic reminder will be triggered 1 month before the end date of the contract.
If there's no fixed duration: the automatic reminder won't be triggered at all. You can delete it if you want to. Just click on the bin symbol on the right of it.
When are my custom reminders triggered?
If you've created a custom reminder at a fixed date, it will be triggered at this precise date, in the morning.
> If you've created a reminder to be triggered on 10/10/2023, you'll be notified on 10/10/2023, at 9am.
If you've created a reminder based on prior notice, the same rules apply.
> Let's take the same example as above:You have a contract starting 01/01/2022 and ending 31/12/2022, with a 2 months prior notice.
You have created a reminder to be triggered 4 months before prior notice, because you need time to think about it.
The prior notice being 2 months, it starts on 01/11/2022.
Your reminder will then be triggered 4 months before 01/11/2022 so on 01/07/2022.
No matter the duration of the months (31 days or 28 days), 1 month is to be understood as from the beginning to the end of the month.
So 01/02/2022 to 28/02/2022 = 1 month
And 01/08/2022 to 31/02/2022 = 1 month
