Comments.Text: Hi Vito, sorry I can't advise on this, but I think the 'scheduled reminder' tag you have used might mislead since i think most times that is related to these civicrm/admin/scheduleReminders?reset=1 whereas you are dealing with "Schedule Follow-up Activity"

  If you install the new extension CiviRules, you have several automatic options.
  
  I can imagine that you set up a rule like this:
  
  * **Event:** Activity is changed
  * **Condition:** Field value comparison for a certain field you have updated
  * **Action (option A):** Create activity with a certain activity type, activity title, activity status and assignee contact. (Then it can turn up in a to do-list)
  * **Action (option B):** install the Email API extension as well, and have the option to send a email directly to the assignee containing a template with contact info(tokens). (This is described [here](https://civicrm.stackexchange.com/questions/5118/how-to-notify-ceo-of-large-contributions)
  
  So, instead of creating a separate Save and New option, you could have CiviRules automatically create the activity when you add certain values to the activity
