Subject: Action dates/reminders

Our library has just migrated from Notis to Voyager, and I am missing
the
action date feature of the Notis OPRs.

For example:  I spoke to my vendor rep today about The Economist; we
haven't
been getting issues and that is very unusual.  She checked into it and
the
bottom line is the fulfillment house goofed up, but our subscription has
been reinstated and we are to begin receiving regularly again with the
Feb.
26th issue.
On Notis, I would write myself a note with an action date set for, say,
March 1.  On that date a report would be triggered, and if I hadn't
received
the issue & removed the note, I could follow up.

How do other people remind themselves of this sort of thing?  Am I going
to
need to set up tickler files again?  (I hope not . . .)

Thanks in advance for any tips.

For him that stealeth a Book from this Library, let it change into a
serpent
in his hand and rend him.  Let him be struck with Palsy, and all his
Members
blasted.  Let him languish in Pain crying aloud for Mercy and let there
be
no sur-cease to his agony till he sink in Dissolution.  Let Bookworms
gnaw
his Entrails in token of the Worm that dieth not, and when at last he
goeth
to his final Punishment, let the flames of Hell consume him for ever and
aye.
