About contract milestones

Contract milestones are used to identify important dates and indicate progress as defined within the scope of a contract. In Lawson Contract Management, milestones are most commonly used for grant, service, or construction-related contracts. For example, a construction contract may include milestones to indicate when the foundation is finished or when a specified percent of framing is complete.

There are two ways that notification emails for upcoming milestone due dates can be sent. The first way is to run the batch program Send Email Notifications Of Milestones. You can schedule it, even for recurring runs. The other way is to run the action Send Immediate Email either for a specific milestone contact or for a different person.
