HI - I'm a new Mac user and I need help with a very basic workflow. I'm trying to use my Mac to create "to-do's" based on an event I make in iCal. I use my Mac to support a property renting business. If I make an event in iCal which is a reservation called "Smith", I would like "To-Do's" to be created to support that reservation. For example, I would like the following To-do's to be automatically created with alarms;
To-Do #1 60 days prior to check-in: "Smith - Bill first installment"
To-Do #2 30 days prior to check-in: "Smith - Bill second installment"
T0-Do #3 14 days prior to check-in: "Smith - Send check-in instructions"

Any insight whether or not Automator can do this or if I should try another avenue would be greatly appreciated. Thanks all!!
