To dismiss the selected reminder, click the

Use the

button to copy the selected reminder to a new one. Each reminder needs to have a Reminder and a Date. The Date must be set up for today or in the future. You may tie the reminder to a customer account number and deal. Click the Select Account and Deal button to select the deal for this reminder. Use the
