Workflow

The reminder is controlled by two variables:

  • Time from which records are obsolete

  • Period after which users should be reminded again

Example:

  • obsolete if older than 6 months

  • users remind after 2 weeks

The timestamp of the records that are deprecated will be changed to:

  • -6 months +2 weeks

Find deprecated records

Frontend user reminder: Workflow

Illustration 1: Three records are out of date (left of the point -6 months)

Illustration above should be clear.

Update deprecated records

Frontend user reminder: Workflow

Illustration 2: The three deprecated records are moved to -6 months +2 weeks

The deprecated records of the illutsration 1 are moved to the point -6 months +2 weeks in the illustration 2.

The timestamp of these records is set to now -6 months +2 weeks.

Now the three records will be deprecated in 2 weeks. If the frontend user won't update these records, he will get a reminder in 2 weeks again.
