Sends notifications to the approvers or reviewers of an outstanding task.
This action allows for reminder scenarios as seen below.
For example, let's say you have an approval task assigned to a set of users. After a configured delay, you want to send a notification to any approvers still required to respond. The approval task will repeat waiting and sending messages 3 times. If the original approval task allows LazyApproval, the reminder notification will include the LazyApproval token in the subject to allow the workflow replies send to it.
Specify this workflow variable to nominate which request approval/review/data action to send reminders regarding.
When configuring a Request Approval, Request Review or Request Data action, nominate a workflow variable of type Action ID to store the assigned workflow action ID.
The action will repeat the delay and notifications this number of times.
The delay the action will wait inbetween sending each reminder.
The action will start with a delay, so no external delay action is required. The total time is calculated by summing all fields, regardless of the Time Calculation option selected. For example, 4 days and 4 minutes will be calculated as 96 (24x4) hours and 4 minutes.
Specifies whether or not hours outside the work week should be included when counting down to send a reminder.
The During business days only option will specify that weekends or holidays are not included in the count down, but after hours on a business day are.
Example:
The During business hours only option specifies that only business hours are used in the count down.
Example:
If neither option is selected, all hours will be included in the count down.

To manage holidays for your site or site collection, see Manage holidays (sites and site collections).
