Improving efficiency and streamlining task management for various projects are goals for anyone involved in such processes and when SharePoint is involved, the need for increased productivity is, perhaps, more manifest.

Small improvements can make a great difference and there are some components that when added to SharePoint and used properly can have a visible positive impact on the active tasks and projects. One such tool is called List Notifications Feature and it is designed especially for creating and managing reminders.

Once this add-on is integrated in SharePoint, users will be able to define notifications for work tasks, so after a specific time interval passes, they will be reminded about something important that they have to take care of.

A neat thing about the reminders you can set with List Notifications Feature is that even if the time for which they were set passes, the notices will continue to be active. This way, it is possible to keep track of tasks that have to be completed and are now delayed.

The notifications can be either direct, through pop-ups, or indirect, via e-mail messages. The scheduling abilities offered by List Notifications Feature make the feature package more complete and further increase the value of this particular SharePoint component.
