    By default, every new user’s On-Call Reminder Rules would be defined by Squadcast as 1 hour before the On-Call Shift starts.

    You can remove all the rules from On-Call Reminder Rules if you wish not to be reminded about your upcoming On-Call Shift.
Important:
  1. 1.
    In the case of a complete override, where the original on-call participant is overridden for the entire duration, only the override participant will receive on-call reminder notifications.
In the following example, only "PK" will receive on-call reminders.
  1. 2.
    In the case of a partial override, on-call reminder notifications are sent to both the original on-call participant and the override participant.
In the following example, both "DT" and "PK" will receive the on-call reminders.
