Adding reminders to your tasks in Lawcus offers a range of benefits that help you stay organized, meet deadlines, and enhance your productivity. By setting up reminders, you can effectively prioritize your work, avoid missed deadlines, and optimize your workflow. With Lawcus, you have the flexibility to choose from different reminder types that suit your preferences and receive timely notifications tailored to your needs.
Also, you can set up reminders of your tasks at the global level to stay on top of all the tasks. You can also add a reminder for a particular task or a bunch of tasks based on your requirements.
Note: Notifications are sent before the task is due. You can add as many reminders as you want to a task. For example, for some important tasks, you could ask Lawcus to send you an email reminder 48 hours in advance, a text/SMS reminder 24 hours in advance, and a pop-up reminder 10 minutes before the task.
There are two types of reminders:
An email reminder, in which case Lawcus will send you an email at the scheduled time.
A text/SMS reminder, in which case Lawcus will send an SMS to your mobile phone at the scheduled time.
Note: To enable SMS reminders, please add the text-enabled number to your profile.
