Document expiry reminders

Hear about the renewal before it lapses.

KuduDoc emails you ahead of each expiry date you have confirmed: 90, 60, 30 and 7 days before, by default — or the days you choose.

Every plan, Personal included.

How document expiry reminders work.

You confirm the date on the page, KuduDoc emails you before it lapses, and the replacement goes beside the old one.

The date is printed
on the document.

KuduDoc suggests the date and shows the sentence it came from. Check it against the certificate before you confirm it, and type the right date if the suggestion is off.

Reminders on
your schedule.

Keep the four default emails, or set your own days and drop the ones you don’t need. Set quiet hours so nothing arrives at night.

For privacy, the email doesn’t name the document.

The dates a tender
will ask about.

B-BBEE certificate, tax compliance status (TCS) PIN, letter of good standing, professional registration: each with its valid-until date on the record. For how long each one lasts, see what expires, and when.

Swearing a B-BBEE affidavit instead? The official forms count the affidavit’s 12 months from the day the commissioner signed it.

At home

The dates a household
runs on.

Licence disc, passport, insurance schedule, roadworthy: the date and the file in one place. Passports, licence cards and discs each run on their own cycle: see what expires, and when.

Keep certified copies, with the date they were certified, and KuduDoc reminds you before one gets older than the receiver accepts.

Where the dates show up.

Expiring in 90 days

Home keeps a list of what is coming due, each row one click from the record.

Has an expiry

Filter the Library to the records that carry a date.

Statements

A bank statement has no printed expiry, so nothing reminds you by default. If a lender wants a recent one, set a date on it yourself and the reminders follow.

Reminders go to you,
not to the people you shared with.

A share has its own access and its own expiry, a different date from the one printed on the certificate.

Questions
people ask.

The renewal, the date, your schedule
and the cost.

Yes. KuduDoc keeps the expiry date you confirm on each licence, lease, certificate, permit or policy, and emails you before it lapses: 90, 60, 30 and 7 days before, by default — or the days you choose. It works in your web browser, on every plan, Personal included.
No. KuduDoc keeps the date on the record and reminds you ahead of it; you renew with the licensing department yourself. The same goes for a passport, a medical certificate or a B-BBEE certificate.
Yes, which is why you confirm it. A date read off the page comes with the sentence it was taken from. If it is off, set the right date yourself. Where the page is unclear, KuduDoc asks you instead of guessing.
Yes. By default you get four emails, 90, 60, 30 and 7 days before the date. Set your own days instead, switch off the ones you don’t need, and set quiet hours so nothing arrives at night.
You can, but a spreadsheet holds the date, not the document. In KuduDoc the date sits on the document itself, so when a reminder comes, the file is one click away on Home, and the replacement goes beside the old one.
Keep each certificate, licence and permit in the Library and confirm its expiry date, from the B-BBEE certificate to an employee’s work permit or professional driving permit. KuduDoc emails you before each date: 90, 60, 30 and 7 days before, by default — or the days you choose. Home lists what expires in the next 90 days.
Reminders work on every plan. Personal is free, with no card and no expiry date. Family is R99 a month (R948 a year), Professional R199 (R1,990) and Business R299 (R2,868), per occupied seat, with a 14-day trial. Documents you have already sent are not affected by a plan change. Enterprise is contact-only.
