Sending Reminder Repetitively

Introduction

In this guide, you'll learn how to implement a conditional repetitive loop for sending reminders using deadlines in Joget. This technique is proper when sending reminders at regular intervals instead of just once. By the end of this tutorial, you will be able to design a workflow that triggers reminders repeatedly until a specific condition is met.

How does it work?

The process begins with setting a deadline for the intended activity, which is typical in many workflows. However, to send reminders repetitively, you'll need to design the workflow to include a waiting activity, such as Wait for Timeout. This activity allows you to loop the process and send reminders continuously until a condition breaks the loop.

  1. Begin by setting a deadline for the activity where you want to send the reminder. This straightforward setup triggers the reminder once.

  2. Next, introduce a waiting or dummy activity in your workflow. This will trigger the repetitive loop.

  3. Finally, add a conditional transition to your workflow. This transition will determine when the loop should stop, ensuring that reminders are only sent when necessary.
