5.3.1 Notification of invalid contract information

You can use the Notification of invalid contract information (Asset Console) task to periodically send email notifications regarding maintenance, lease, and rental contracts that have expired.

The email sent by this task lists the category, end date, and contract number of each contract, as shown in the figure below.

The task also sends CSV files as email attachments. These files contain lists of the assets corresponding to the contracts that are about to expire. If no lease or maintenance contracts are about to expire, the task does not attach any files.

The following table describes the names and contents of the files that can be attached.

In the default setting for the Notification of invalid contract information (Asset Console) task, the task is executed at 6:00 am on the first day of every month, and it sends a notification by email about any contract that will expire within two months. For details about how to change the date and time and the frequency of task execution, see 7.9.2 Task setup procedure.

Note

Because the task is set to execute only once a month, a short contract whose duration is less than one month might not be included in the notification under the default settings. For example, if a contract is in effect from March 20 through March 30 and was not registered on March 1, it will never be subject to notification by the task.

If such short-time contracts might be common, you should add a schedule for sending email notifications that will include them. For details about the procedure for adding schedules, see 7.9.2(2) Changing a task schedule.
