Send Reminders

  • The Reminders screen allows you to send reminders to different categories of users:
  • Those who have not responded to the welcome message.
  • A user is considered to have not responded when they have logged in to the system and created a permanent password, but not entered notification information.

  • Those who have responded and provided information, but need to be reminded to keep the information current.

By default, reminders contain a link to the service website, the recipient’s username, and a link to the forgot password feature.

The Reminders message does not contain the temporary password or login URLs. If you need to assign a temporary password, or provide the login URL, send a Welcome Message instead.

You can customize any portion of the reminder message.
