Accurate renewal dates and name of document due for renewal

Dear community,

 

I was wondering if anyone could help me with my on-going problem of creating an automatic renewal email reminder for a whole team and attaching the name of the document that is due to expire.

 

I recently had help by Tim, a Microsoft advisor with setting up Power automated flow (https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/all/how-to-add-a-automatic-email-renewal-for-a-whole/d7350a37-2493-4902-a22b-65c83eebacd2). However, now I am having a few problems with the flow and intended use of the flow created.

 

My team have risk assessments that require renewal every year. I have followed advice of Tim and from the reminder flow webpage (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/set-a-reminder-flow-23c0e172-1fc1-4ac8-a9db-cd0b81d634d8) and have therefore added created dates and renewal dates to files in share point and a flow using Power Automate. However, now when I make the reminder flow we are receiving emails everyday, not 7 days before the document is due for renewal (7 days is just our preference here). Additionally, the flow and the automated email doesn't attach the name of which document is due for renewal which is not helpful for directing our team to the required document.

 

Does anyone know how to help with these problems? I can attach screen shots of the flow if necessary.

 

Kind regards,

 

Felix.

    Yes please show screenshots. The links you provided create two different types of flows. So I don't know what your flow looks like that is giving the issue.

     

    Please expand all of the steps so the fields are easy to see, not just a collapsed view of each step.

     

    Especially the Get Items Filter Query needs to be visible and any Conditions that are being used.
