You can be notified in one of two ways when a reminder's date arrives. You can be sent an email, or you could launch a workflow that performs certain actions and then perhaps notifies you in a different way. We'll look at both of these methods below. Communication If you choose a Notification Type of Communication when configuring your reminder type, the person assigned to the reminder will receive a system communication when the reminder date arrives. The template for this communication can be found under Admin Tools > Settings > Communications > System Communications and is called Reminder Notification. If you want to use a different system communication than the one provided, you can change which one is used by updating the Process Reminders job configuration. We'll talk more about that below. Workflow You can choose to have the reminder launch a workflow instead of sending you a communication. Of course, you can configure the workflow to send you a communication. When the reminder date arrives for a reminder configured to launch a workflow, the workflow will launch and will be passed the following items if the workflow has matching keys: ReminderReminderTypePersonEntityTypeEntity
