Can we add to "specific date" and include recurring with a certain frequency with alerts and reminders? I'd love to set a reminder to the group to update a field on the 10th of every month, but I don't see a way to do this.

Hi Kelly,

Unfortunately, it's not possible at the moment, but it's a great idea!

Please submit an Enhancement Request when you have a moment.

Depending on your need there are workarounds. What do you need more specifically?

Have a fantastic week!

Best,

Could you add a Reminder column and populate it with the dates on which you want reminders sent? Then create an alert that triggers when the Reminder date field is today?
