Hello, I would like to elaborate more on the events popup reminder topic already discussed here : https://community.progress.com/community_groups/products_enhancements/i/rollbase/event_popup_reminders_customization We are proposing a change to how notifications are displayed for Overdue Events and Tasks. Currently they are all displayed in one growl notification and can only be closed. It would be ideal to have a window popup listing all the Overdue AND [MK] upcoming meetings or to-do's (or any custom object that uses Event and Task attributes), as shown in this screenshot and have the ability to individually take actions on them. When the user logs in, the reminders can be automatically displayed, but the user can choose to minimise and carry on working. The reminder button on the header/top will be highlighted to indicate that there are pending notifications. This way it wouldn't popup every time on refresh or when we open a new page as it is the case now. Also, these reminders will be applicable for both UPCOMING and OVERDUE items, which makes the notification user friendly and more interactive. Reminding a meeting is as useful as warning that it is overdue It would also be good to have options in each one of the objects which have the event and task attributes so that the notifications can be customized. Allow Notifications (check-box) – to enable/disable notifications for the object It would also be good to provide a template builder (similar to that in the Contact Card designer in 4.2) where the Admin can specify the fields/format to show in the pop-up for each object . For example we might want to show Account and Contact for Tasks. And maybe Location and duration for Meetings. Also, we could have user specific options; Default snooze duration – this can be set automatically for the user, but they can change it on the reminder window by clicking on the pick-list. We have 2 examples below Thank you Meryem
