Reminder software to keep track of expiry dates
Dear all,
I'm doing an inventory for my company's softwares. Each software has its own expiry date. It is difficult to remember so many different dates.
Can anyone recomend me a good software that would help remind me (or other IT staff) when a software needs to be renewed.
p.s: this software would also be helpful to keep track of other items beside softwares for example insurance expiry dates etc.
thanks.

TaskPrompt is a task reminder utility. You can add tasks and categorize them. Set the task's occurrence to Immediate, Todo, Minutes, Hourly, Hours, Daily, Days, Weekly, Weeks, Monthly, Months, Yearly, Years or Scheduled according to when the task should re-occur.
Tasks that have a date and time set to Minutes, Hourly, Hours, Daily, Days, Weekly, Weeks, Monthly, Months, Yearly, Years or Scheduled will prompt you with a popup scroll window above your system time on the Taskbar to notify you that the task needs immediate attention.
Here is one more :

Something simple....
You use an agenda program. Your company prolly has one. Groupwise, lotus notes, exchange...... etc
Put it in your agenda and it will pop up whenever you sceduled it.
No need for software.

kneh,
regarding ur sollution (agenda program - Lotus Notes), will the reminder pop-up even if the user don't run the program?
Can MS OUTLOOK perform this as well.

No. A program has to be running to do something.
What is your spefic requirement? Are you wanting a program that will open Outlook, have it check for reminders, then close it at certain times during the day?
