Documents #5686 (Org level disable reminder emails).

  • Customization page: rewrites the "Other emails" section around the two new Yes/No switches (monthly deadline reminders, day-before distribution reminders), notes that existing banks were migrated to Yes, and shows the organization view.
  • Partner, Partner Group and Distribution pages: the "turned off" notices that replace the reminder fields.
  • Partner Reminder Emails page: note that the bank-wide switch overrides everything else.

Stacked on #5711 (merge that first, or this PR's diff will include it).

- Distribution date and time -- this is defaulted to midnight of the current day. If you want to change it (if, for example, you have a specific time you are scheduling the pickup for), we recommend you use the little calendar gizmo at the right of the field.

- Send email reminder the day before --> causes an email to be sent the day before
- Send email reminder the day before --> causes an email to be sent the day before. (If your organization has turned off day-before reminder emails in "My Organization", you'll see a notice here instead of the checkbox -- see [Getting Started - Customization](getting_started_customization.md#other-emails).)

Nice reference


![Distribution form when day-before reminders are turned off](images/essentials/distributions/essentials_distributions_reminders_off_notice.png)

Banks that were already using Human Essentials when these switches were added have both set to "Yes", so nothing changed for them. If you never want either kind of email, set them to "No" -- this is simpler than turning reminders off Partner by Partner. If both are "No", the Partner form will show a notice that reminder emails are turned off for your organization.

We don't need to talk about how bank options changed over time or defaulted from previous values. Remove the first sentence.

OK, this one looks fine to me.

Describes the two new Yes/No switches in My Organization > Other emails,
the notices shown on the Partner, Partner Group and Distribution forms
when reminders are off, and cross-links from the reminder pages.
