Custom Expiration Notifications Per Record Type

What Is It?

We're excited to announce a new feature designed to give you even more control over your record management: Custom Expiration Notifications Per Record Type.

No more one-size-fits-all approach! You can now tailor the notification period for each type of record to perfectly align with your needs. Here’s how it works:

  • Adjust the default 60-day notification to suit your specific workflow. Whether you need a quick 7-day alert for MVRs or a 180-day heads-up for training and recertifications, you’re in control.
  • Stay ahead of deadlines and ensure timely renewals, reducing the risk of missed expirations and compliance issues.
  • Customizing notifications allows for a more organized and efficient management of your records, saving you time and hassle.

Implementing this feature is simple and will significantly enhance your record-keeping efficiency. Here’s to making your job easier and keeping your team on track!
