MS Office Forum / Outlook / Calendaring / March 20071st Recurring Reminder NOT popping up
I work for a property management company, and I am trying to set up recurring appt reminders to a few of our employees which would remind them 60 days before they need to increase tenants rents. Example of what I set: Rent Increase date: 5/1/07 (which I put as the "Start Date") Reminder: 60 days before Reoccurrence: Yearly Now when I save the appointment reminder, shouldn't it pop up immediately and tell me that my first Rent Increase (dated 5/1/07) is due within 7-8 weeks or whatever.... because it's not popping up. ------ Then I decided to do a test appt, and I did an appointment for 5/1/07, with a reminder 60 days early ... and NOT reoccuring. And as soon as I save it, it reminds me that my test appointment is due in 7-8 weeks or whatever.. So why is it not showing this immediate first reminder when I set up my real, REOCCURING appointment reminder?? > I work for a property management company, and I am trying to set up > recurring appt reminders to a few of our employees which would remind [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > So why is it not showing this immediate first reminder when I set up > my real, REOCCURING appointment reminder?? Well, my first thought is that it's a bug, but my second thought is that it might just take time. I repro'd the basic situation easily. Then I exited out and restarted, and, sure enough, I still don't get both alerts. But, I'm curious to see if an alert shows up before the calendar event actually happens. So, I created a new appointment, start time was 1 hour and 5 minutes from now, and the alert was for 1 hour before. I set it up as a recurring appointment. But, I'm not really sure what you're looking for. Validation? Consider it validated. It sure happens. A fix? Don't set up an alert for a recurring appointment where the alert would happen in the past. And try to get in a beta and report it in the next version assuming it still happens, or hope that someone who can file a bug against the existing product see's this and files it for you.
