Contact Management Alarms

Hello everyone,

I'm a relatively new user (I've used older versions of FMP for years, but I'm now upgrading to FMP 11 and seeking to build a new DB).

I will likely be building off of a standard Contact Management database, and am wondering if there is a way to create an alarms field. Is it possible to create a field in a Contact layout that will allow you to set an alarm with a note? For example, if a user is adding information to a contact entry, and would like to followup with them in two weeks, is there a way to set a reminder to contact them in two weeks? So this would be different from birthday alarms which are recurrent. I would like the users to be able to set the alarm themselves so no coding/script work is necessary for setting the actual alarm times. Does anyone know of a method / plug-in that offers this feature?

I'd appreciate any thoughts anyone has.

Thanks in advance!
