Hi ChrisWebbTech
looked at the Flow reminder at the road-map - rolling out - But it seems like I only can create a reminder for myself and on item level and not 'pin-point' the reminder to the doc creator on all items ?- Anders ErikssonOct 09, 2018Copper Contributor
I have used Flow to solve this a number of times and i use the "Recurrence" trigger on the library and once a day the flow goes through the documents and checks the dates. If any expiry date is expiring then send out an e-mail to the person responsible for the document (a people column in the library). The benefit with this approach is you can tailor who to and when you send the reminder.
