Automating Reminders, Replies and Emails with Bp Allied Scheduler
The Bp Allied Scheduler is now available to enable some tasks to happen automatically. This includes:
-
Automate sending Email and SMS Reminders

Send scheduled Due and Overdue Task emails
The scheduler uses the built-in Windows Task Scheduler function to carry out scheduled tasks set-up in the Bp Allied scheduler application. There are some specific requirements to enable this to work:
-
This is not available for Bp Allied Fully Hosted. Please see details on using the Automated SMS Reminder Service instead.
-
There must be a computer acting as a nominated server that has Bp Allied scheduler installed (this is only installed on ONE computer)
-
The server computer must be left turned on and connected to the network at all times. A laptop or tablet is not ideal for this.
