Chase the records that blew past their due date

Every morning, WebRun opens NocoDB, reads the date fields in the tables you nominate, finds the records now past their due date, groups them by the owner recorded on each, blocks catch-up time in Google Calendar for the worst backlogs, and sends the chase list to Telegram grouped by person.

In short

How do I chase overdue records in my own database?

WebRun opens NocoDB every morning, reads the date fields in the tables you nominate, and finds the records now past due and not marked done. It groups them by owner with the days late on each, blocks catch-up time in Google Calendar for the biggest backlogs, and sends the chase list to Telegram.

  • A tracker built in NocoDB actually chases people instead of holding data
  • Every overdue record has a named owner and a day count
  • The total overdue number falls day by day where the team can see it

Questions, answered

Does it change my records?

No. WebRun reads the date fields and reports what is overdue. It edits no record, moves no due date, and marks nothing complete. Updating a record stays with its owner.

Does it message customers?

No. The chase list goes to your internal Telegram channel and calendar blocks land on team calendars only. WebRun contacts no customer or supplier named in a record.

Which tables does it watch?

Only the bases, tables, and views you nominate, and only the date field you point it at. Everything else in NocoDB is left alone.

Put this on autopilot.
