AutoPlayAuto.com Release Notes - Version 21.8.1 Released 1st September, 2021

Lead Collaborators Now Have Access to Lead Reminders (SPW-4669)

Building on top of the existing Lead Collaborator functionality, we have now enabled for a Collaborator to be able to create a 'Reminder' event on a lead for follow up. The Reminders work and function in the exact same manner as the Calendar Events that a lead owner will append to a lead. These Reminders will bring leads into the 'Now' date range when they are due, and follow the same process into Overdue and Stalled if they are not actioned upon.



These Reminders can be configured individually for each account.
