The Reminder field is to be used in coordination with the 🟠 2 - On Hold status, it enables hiding (snoozing) the task until the specified date.

<aside> 🧠 The Reminder is the date you’ll re-assess the 🟠 2 - On Hold ****status and not the date you’ll work on the task.

</aside>

<aside> ‼️ When updating the status to 🟠 2 - On Hold, the Stockler must:

Explain in a comment why and what this task is waiting for. If waiting for a Ticket to be done, you must link it.
- Example
Set a reminder, see ✅ When to use? .

<aside> ⚡ When updating the status to 🟠 2 - On Hold, a notion automation will automatically set a reminder to @Today which you can then easily update to an adapted value.

🕰️ While waiting for the Reminder to appear is an excellent time to write the On Hold reason in the comments.

❓When to use it?

✅ When to use?

You’re waiting for information or work from a team not using ‣ as primary work organisation. Typically, you’re waiting for a non technical ticket to be done.

⇒ Estimate how long the task will take, better under estimate than over, and snooze till then. You should default to one working day, and if external communication is required you can default to 7 days. If work is tracked by a Notion Page (as Ticket), mention it in the comment.
- Examples
You’re waiting for an external event to happen. For example if a task must be done after a software received an update.

⇒ Set date at which you’ll check if the software was updated.
- Example
The task must not be made before a specific date. For example, updating a retailer commission that changes at a specific date.

⇒ Set date of event
- Example

❌ When not to use?

You want to snooze until you’ll have time to work the task:

Instead: Set the task in 🔴 0 - Pending Workforce and re-assess Gain and Work Duration. If suggested ROI doesn’t fit your estimation of when should this task be done, please discuss it with your team leader.
You want to snooze before re-assigning it:

Instead: Set the status to 🔴 0 - Pending Workforce.
Task is not relevant anymore

Instead: Set the status to ⚪ -1 - Dropped
You or another Stockler needs to finish writing the specifications of the tasks

Instead: Create a curate prerequisite and assign yourself to it.
You want to do another piece of work before moving forward with the task (re-assigning or doing it):

Instead: Create a prerequisite and assign yourself to it.

🧘‍♂️ How to not forget `🟠 2 - On Hold` tasks

Reminders should be bulk managed in your daily ‣ cleaning and therefore you ❌ should not use ringing reminder ❌. You may use a ringing reminder on a Task or Ticket if and only if this table is not part of your primary work organisation. For example, as an ‣ member you’re allowed to set a ringing reminder on a ‣ but not ‣ or ‣.
