What it does
Inside Deadlines & Reminders
Automatic reminders keep work moving without the follow-up emails.
Multi-channel deadline remindersDeliver due-date alerts via mobile push notifications, email digest summaries, and WhatsApp messages — reaching every employee where they are most responsive.
Overdue task escalationAutomatically escalate slipping tasks to the project manager when a deadline passes with no completion, so issues are surfaced before clients notice.
Two-way calendar synchronizationSync task due dates bidirectionally with Google Calendar, Microsoft Outlook, and Apple iCal — so deadlines appear alongside meetings.
Smart working-day due date calculationFactor in company holidays, regional state holidays, and weekend shifts when scheduling task due dates so planned timelines are always realistic.
SLA milestone alertsSet contractual SLA milestones with buffer alerts (e.g., 75% SLA consumed) to give the team time to course-correct before breach.
Daily morning digestSend each team lead a curated morning summary of all tasks due today, tasks overdue, and escalations needing attention — before the workday begins.

What changes on day one.
- Client deliverables stop slipping because "I forgot" is no longer an option.
- Project managers get warned before a deadline is missed, not after the client asks.
- Public holidays are already factored in, so due dates are never unrealistic.
- Frontline and field staff get reminders on WhatsApp, where they actually check.
- Calendars stay in sync across Google, Outlook, and the team board automatically.
- Team leads start the day already knowing exactly what is due, without asking around.
Questions
Deadlines & Reminders: FAQs
Yes. Configure per-employee reminder preferences: push notification, email digest, or WhatsApp message. Field and frontline staff who rarely check email are reliably reached on WhatsApp.
Yes. Configure automated daily digests delivered every morning at a chosen time, showing all deliverables due that day, anything already overdue, and any escalation flags for the team lead's attention.
Yes. With task dependencies configured, delaying a predecessor task triggers automatic recalculation of all downstream due dates in the Gantt chart, keeping the project schedule realistic without manual updates.
Yes. Project leads can trigger a broadcast "status check" notification to all assignees on a project at once — prompting everyone to update their task progress simultaneously.
Smart calendar logic detects when a due date lands on a configured company holiday or regional state holiday and automatically warns the assigner, suggesting the nearest preceding working day.
Set a contractual SLA duration on any task or milestone. Sleet Task calculates a percentage-consumed alert (e.g., at 75% of the time budget) and sends a proactive warning to the project manager before the SLA actually breaches.
Yes. Recurring tasks generate fresh due dates and reminder sequences on the configured schedule. Each cycle is tracked independently so the history of past completions is preserved.
