Reminder types help group, secure and organize individual reminders. Each reminder type is associated with an entity in Rock, so you can have reminders for just about anything. There are a few examples in the screenshot below to help get you thinking about what reminder types you might configure. To configure reminder types, navigate to Admin Tools > Settings > General > Reminder Types.

You have many options for setting up reminder types. For instance, do you want to receive a communication when the reminder becomes Due, or should a workflow launch and do something for you? Remember, you can set up reminder types for any entity type. All you need to make a reminder is a reminder type and a page with context.

Every reminder you create will be of one of the types you configure as described above. You can create as many as you need, and you can assign security to each one if it's only available for certain roles or individuals. In the next section, we'll see how these reminder types get used to create reminders.
