[edit] Change Requests

[edit] Tweaks 0

1) time set on reports must be GMT London time (display word "GMT")

3) CC, BCC fields are missing

4) REplace label "Client Company:" with "Report For Company:" . This will make it clear that it is not a filter.

[edit] Tweaks V.1.1.a

Note: Tw1)-Tw3) are Mantis 1268, tw4) is Mantis 1272 -- Tira 9:12 AM 2 Oct 2009 (UTC)

tw1) Schedule: Make time zone as a dropdown list and default based on Jaguar User Log in local time

tw2) Make Recipients: text box to dropdown list include a list of Client email (non-JG users) that depends on Report For Company dropdown selected. For example, if report for company filter is set to company X, Recipients dropdown list will be employees who work for company X --> Kostya said it is a tag, so this will be included for all the non-JG users list.

tw3) Make CC and BCC recipients: text box to dropdown list with combination list of Jaguar and Non-jaguar Users

tw4) Add Schedule option for Every __ hours with a dropdown list of 4, 18, 12, 16, and 24 hours

tw6) CT# hyperlinks for client users -> link to view shipment on client interface, for internal users -> link to view shipment on Internal interface.

NOTE: manually typed email addresses (copied and pasted to combo box) -> anonymous: consider to have hyperlinks to view client interface. And if that user doesn't have client visibility, there is a warning pop-up message.

mantis: 4534 (phase: Stg, status: completed)

[edit] Core Requirements

[edit] User Guide v2

Currently some(!) CT2 reports can be scheduled:

[edit] Client version v1

The following wiki defines option to allow non jag users to schedule reports themselves / see scheduled reports: 1892_rfd.

[edit] More

• more columns and filters (example: reports assigned to)
