 ===== Applicant final decision reminders =====
+Any applicant that has an active application (not in ''Closed'' status) as well as some confirmed accepted offers ( ''Accepted'', ''Conditionally accepted'', ''Other'') that require a decision (as set by the administrator when making the offer) will be subject to periodic reminders urging the applicant to consider making the final decision as soon as possible.
+As a side note, the applicant can choose between 4 decisions statuses:
+  - Final decision (also choosing the offer to accept as final decision)
+  - Waiting for more offers
+  - Undecided
+  - Other (possibility to describe the situation)
+The interval of these reminders depends on a number of factors:
+  * The first notification is sent immediately when the above conditions have been met as a way of informing the applicant of the future steps that need to be taken.
+  * Subsequent notifications will be delivered with an interval of one week if the applicant fails to make any decision or chooses the “Undecided” status. If the applicant chooses the “Waiting for more offers” status, the reminder interval will be 2 weeks.
+  * A last-minute reminder is also sent out if the offer carries a decision deadline that is only one day away and there is still no final decision yet.
+The reminders will stop when:
+  * the applicant makes a final decision (or chooses “Other”)
+  * the applicant declines the offer in question (or the administrator declines it on behalf of the applicant)
+  * the offer carries a decision deadline and it has passed
+  * 2 months has passed from the offer being confirmed. By then it should be sufficiently safe to consider that the applicant most likely never intends to respond to the offer(s)
+The template used to deliver these notifications is:
+|**Subject**	|Please review your offers|
+|**Template**	|''applicant-decide''|

 ===== Invoice delivery =====
-When an invoice has been issued to the applicant, it will be immediately delivered to the applicant as an attachment to an email. When the invoice has been edited by the administrator, there is a possibility to re-deliver the invoice, which is up to the administrator to decide.
+When an invoice has been issued to the applicant, an email with a link to the invoice will be immediately delivered to the applicant. When the invoice has been edited by the administrator, they can choose to either simply "Save" or "Save and send out" which will result in another email with the link to the invoice.

+Note that the reminder is skipped if the period between the invoice issue date and the deadline does not allow for it. For example, if the period between issue and deadline is only 3 days, the reminder would be sent out immediately. In fact, at least 3 days must be elapsed from the issue date for the invoice to be considered eligible for a reminder.

@@ Line 184: / Line 211: @@
 Also, note that there is not "only send N times" termination scheme, but for example, setting up the interval for 10 days and termination on 30 days means that the reminder will go out 3 times.
+Possible termination anchors:
+^Anchor		^Description          		^Example^
+|Creation	| Task was created		|30 days after task was created	|
+|Commit		| Task status was changed	|60 days after task status was last changed|
+|Resolution	| Task was resolved		|0 days (immediately) after the task was resolved|
+|Submission	| Application was submitted	|90 days after application was submitted|
+|Offering	| An accepted offer was made *	|0 days (immediately) after the applicant was accepted|
+|Decision	| Applicant made a final decision|5 days after applicant decided to come to study|
+* Includes ''Accepted'', ''Conditionally accepted'', ''Other''
 Please consult support on how to achieve that.
 At most, all task reminders (resolved or not) will stop after 6 months.
