Task Reminder for Atlassian Confluence
In collaboration with Gebrüder Gerstenberg GmbH & Co. KG Scandio GmbH expanded the Confluence Task Management by one more feature to make its workflows even more effective.
For this purpose Scandio GmbH developed an add-on for Atlassian Confluence which sends reminders with reference to expiring tasks by email, so that the user gains an overview of his shortly expiring tasks and is able to simply keep track of his deadlines.
The add-on Task Reminder for Atlassian Confluence provides the following features for Confluence users and administrators:
Reminder email
- output of several to-do lists:
- expired tasks
- expiring tasks within a defined period of time (default 7 days)
- tasks with expiry date

- email standard texts are internationalized by reference to the user language; at the moment these languages are available:
- German
- English
