Task plan & workflow overview (including how to initiate/subscribe to a task plan)
This guide has been reviewed against our global client base and classed as relevant to all regions
A task plan is a predefined sequence of steps which are applied to a specific record
Each step might be a reminder to call, to send an e-mail, send a letter or to trigger a preset workflow, which could itself display a specific screen or run a program
Task plans are extremely flexible and can be very simple or highly complex, depending on requirements
Task plans & workflow can be triggered from an applicant, property, contact, landlord or tenancy record and can be made available to specific records or to all
A task plan can be initiated manually and/or a workflow can be used to trigger a task plan automatically
A sample of working examples of how task plan & workflow functionality in AgencyCloud can be used is available here:
Task plans & workflow first require setting-up and configuring by Reapit Support - both of the above libraries contain a Configuration information section which outline the information required when contacting Reapit Support to request set-up
Example task plan
As explained above, a task plan can be set up to automatically trigger on an action - however, a task plan can also be initiated manually by subscribing to it, as shown in step 1 below
In this example, a plan with the 3 steps is used, as follows:
1 day after subscribing a new vendor to the plan, a call reminder is sent to a specific negotiator to request a welcome call
7 days after completion of the previous task, a call reminder is scheduled for the same negotiator
1 day after completion of the previous task, a flag to send an email using a specific template will be sent to the same negotiator
