Default help with setting up a reminder

Hi there,

I need help with setting up a reminder in my sql.
It needs to check the inventory on hand for a product and if it is
below 3 unit, it needs to send an e-mail reminder to the user.

how do I set this up?

Thanks,

A simple way is to setup a scheduled task to run say every 5 minutes that
checks the number and emails the user.

If you want more than that, look into Notification Services.
