Users can create custom reminder rules based on their specific needs and set the preferred timings for those reminders.
Reminders are of three types, namely – Time-based Reminders, Distance-based Reminders and Work Hour-based Reminders.
Time-based Reminders are the reminders that are set on the basis of time period. For example, a user can set a reminder rule to notify them when a state permit is due for a renewal every year.
Distance-based Reminders are the reminders that are set on the basis of distance traveled. For example, a user can set a reminder to notify them when a vehicle is due for a service after traveling every 1500 kilometers.
Work Hour-based Reminders are the reminders that are set on the basis of engine hours. For example, a user can set a reminder to notify them when an object is due for an oil change after every 200 engine hours.
Any user can set a Reminder Rule.
Please Note: Reminder Rule is included only in Bongo IoT Standard and Bongo IoT Premium.
