Distinguish employee cards from business permits
Use a separate document record for each card or permit. Put the employee's name in the owner field for an individual card, and use the document name to distinguish business or mobile vendor permits.
Review current, due soon, and expired records on the dashboard. DocuDue does not determine training requirements, verify compliance, or email employees on your behalf.
Track the date you have confirmed
Upload a PDF or photo to get a suggested expiration date, then confirm it, or type the date manually. Keep the file attached to the record and update the date after renewal.
Check the card, permit, or issuing organization for applicable dates and requirements. A reminder helps you plan; it does not replace those checks or renew the document.
A sensible reminder schedule
30 days before
Review the card or permit and check renewal instructions.
14 days before
Allow time to arrange training or gather paperwork if needed.
7 days before
Check progress and confirm the recorded date remains correct.
A suggestion, not a rule. You choose the reminder date for each document.
Upload it and DocuDue suggests the date
Smart date extraction reads PDFs and photos and pre-fills the expiration date. You confirm it before anything is saved. See how it works.
Common questions
Can I distinguish different employees' cards?
Yes. Use the owner field to label the employee for each card, and keep separate document records for different cards or dates.
Does DocuDue send employees reminders or renew permits?
No. It sends reminder emails according to your reminder settings, not employee outreach on your behalf. You handle training, applications, and renewals yourself.
Does every food handler card have the same renewal period?
No universal renewal period is assumed. Confirm the date with the card or issuer before entering it; DocuDue does not determine legal requirements.
