Automated Motion Deadline Risk Reports
Every Monday, WebRun opens Motion, looks a week ahead at tasks and project deadlines, compares each due date against the time Motion has actually scheduled for it, posts the at-risk deadlines to Microsoft Teams, and sends the project lead a short WhatsApp summary.
How do I find out which deadlines this week are at risk?
WebRun opens Motion every Monday and looks a week ahead, comparing each task and project deadline against the time Motion has actually scheduled for it. It posts the deadlines that cannot be met to Microsoft Teams with the shortfall, and sends the project lead a WhatsApp summary.
- At-risk deadlines surface Monday, not the day they slip
- Every flag shows the exact shortfall in scheduled hours
- The team sees the same list before the week is committed

Questions, answered
Will it move or reschedule my tasks?
No. WebRun reads deadlines and scheduled time in Motion and reports the gap. Moving work, dropping it, or renegotiating the date stays your decision.
Will it message clients about a slipping deadline?
No. Both messages are internal, to your Teams channel and to the project lead on WhatsApp. Nothing goes to a client without you writing and sending it.
What makes a deadline count as at risk?
The time Motion has scheduled before the due date is less than the remaining estimate on the task. The post shows the hours scheduled and the shortfall so you can judge it.
