What it does

Keeps localization handoffs from silently stalling. Every morning it finds translation tasks whose return date has passed but whose status isn't Returned, then sends a graduated reminder: a friendly nudge first, a manager escalation if it's badly overdue.

When to use it

Use it when you hand copy to a pool of translators and need return status tracked without a person manually auditing the board each day. Ideal for teams juggling many locales and rolling deadlines.

How it works

  1. 1Trigger: a daily schedule fires each weekday morning.
  2. 2Action: query monday.com for translation subtasks where Status is not Returned and the Return Date is in the past.
  3. 3Logic: bucket each overdue item by how late it is — one day or less vs. more than two days.
  4. 4Action: for mildly late items, Slack DM the assigned translator with the task and new ask.
  5. 5Output: for severely late items, post a summary to the localization lead's Slack channel tagging the translator and the blocked campaign.
