Simplify the process and then you don't have to be remember or be reminded.
Because you and your partner are communicating. I rarely NEED to be reminded, but it is important to communicate in order to avoid te one time in a hundred when you might get distracted and miss that a foul is the team's seventh.

Once my partner calls that seventh foul, I'm getting the shooter and getting the players lined up for foul shots. I don't need a scoreboard for that, and neither should anyone else.

I don't count on the table personnel telling me that we're in a bonus situation. By the time my partner reports we're already lined up.
