Set a review date on a sharepoint 2010 document
In sharepoint 2010 I need to be able to set a review date on a document and be emailed when this review date is reached. Is th开发者_StackOverflowis possible?
Thanks for any pointers
I would create a very simple Workflow for this. You could just fire up Sharepoint Designer, create a small Workflow which checks whether the document in question has been reviewed and otherwise send an e-mail or a task to some person. Try out Sharepoint Designer & Workflows if you haven't done so. Reminders are a very easy thing to do.
This answer details a few different ways to do this - workflow, scheduled jobs, open source and commercial add-ons.

To make it the most robust solution, I would suggest to customize the Alerts framework of SharePoint. SharePoint allows following customizations (as documented here http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb802949.aspx)
- Adding or removing buttons from the alert e-mails.
- Changing the cascading style sheet used to format e-mail alerts. This is particularly useful for sites that want to create a consistent appearance.
- Changing the latency of "immediate" alerts by adjusting the default timer interval.
- Override the templates used to create e-mail or SMS alerts, either by creating a new template or by setting the SPList.AlertTemplate property.
- Creating custom filters by using Collaborative Application Markup Language (CAML) queries in the element in the alert templates.
- Programmatically setting or changing the mobile messaging service provider (MSP) that forwards SMS alerts to mobile telephones.
- Adding custom event handlers that respond when a user creates or modifies an alert. Also, custom handlers that respond to the alert sending event can be created.
- Programming the alerts framework by using the SharePoint Foundation object model. For more information about how to customize alerts programmatically, see SPAlert.
If your list supports sending alerts based on a View, you are lucky, A NO CODE SOLUTION is already there for you. You can create a View with filter condition like "DueDate is equal to [Today]" (and possibly "AssignedTo is equal to [Me]) and then subscribe to any changes to that view.
If you end up with custom alert filter, following links may get you started: http://egrimmett.wordpress.com/2008/01/17/custom-alerts-part-2-filters/
