Short answer

The assistant can create a one-off reminder or a recurring task with a clear schedule, and it can show or remove existing tasks. Before activation, confirm the time, time zone, task wording and expected result. The exact workflow depends on the connected service, available source data and permissions configured for the business.

Tasks that are useful to schedule

Clear future tasks with a defined start time and expected result work best.

  • Remind you once to review a document or approve a decision.
  • Prepare a regular summary of the working schedule.
  • Periodically check public information or the state of a process.
  • Prompt a recurring administrative task.

An unambiguous schedule

A task needs a date or recurrence rule, a time, a time zone and a description of the expected result. Relative terms such as 'tomorrow' should be confirmed as a specific date.

Business work, clearly controlled

Recurring task
  1. Business owner

    Every Monday morning, remind me to review open supplier decisions.

  2. ValueSpace

    What time should I use, and should the reminder list the currently open decisions or only prompt you to review them?

  3. Business owner

    08:30 Europe/Zurich. Include the current open decisions and their project names.

  4. ValueSpace

    I will create a weekly Monday task for 08:30 Europe/Zurich that prepares the current open supplier decisions grouped by project.

  5. Recurring task activeMondays at 08:30 Europe/Zurich
Conversation scenario: A recurring task confirms time, time zone and expected result The example resolves an ambiguous schedule before the recurring work is activated.

Reviewing and cancelling active tasks

The owner should see which tasks are active, when they will run and what they will do. An unnecessary task can be removed by its clear name without working with technical identifiers.

How this works in ValueSpace

ValueSpace supports the workflow described in “Reminders and recurring tasks for business owners” within the available data, connection and permissions. The visible result and approval boundary remain part of the same reviewable task.

  • Clear future tasks with a defined start time and expected result work best.
  • A task needs a date or recurrence rule, a time, a time zone and a description of the expected result. Relative terms such as 'tomorrow' should be confirmed as a specific date.
  • The owner should see which tasks are active, when they will run and what they will do. An unnecessary task can be removed by its clear name without working with technical identifiers.
  • Two real examples: one one-off task and one recurring task.
  • The time-zone and owner-notification rules.
  • A current list of active tasks without personal data.
