You are free to adjust the routine or write your very own routine to set specific dates a reminder should be send. The default routine seeds to database for weekly and monthly reminders. Weekly reminders are send out on the weekday provided using parameter 'weekly_days_of_week'. Monthy reminders are send out by default on the 1st day of the following month. A parameter of package 'intranet-timesheet-reminders' determines of reminders are send weekly or monthly.
Example:
Weekly reminder mails are to be send on Saturday 21:00. The first one should be send on Saturday, 21th of December 2013. Monthly reminders should be send on the first day of the following month, the first time on 2014-01-01.
Respective end dates are set to 20 years from now.

This script performs the following actions:
Based on interval set using parameter 'intranet-timesheet-reminders::EmailReminderInterval', function 'im_timesheet_scheduled_reminders_send' is frequently executed. It checks if there are any events during the last 24h, for which no reminders have been send yet (table: im_timesheet_reminders_stats). For all events due it calls function 'im_timesheet_send_reminders_to_supervisors'.
