XPM | Job Manager - Add notes column with option to add note
Job Manager - Additional quick job notes Column need to be added which can be seen directly through Job manager screen instead of going inside the Job and then in tab notes
Hi everyone, while this is an idea that our team would like to explore, there are other pieces of work priortised for the time being. We'll shift the status of this idea back to submitted. When there is more news to share around this we'll be back to update you all, here.

I feel like I used to be able to print the Notes Section of the jobs in the reports - has that feature been removed? If so WHY WHY WHY

We want to use XPM Job Manager as our sole means (currently have hybrid system) of managing workflow and being able to enter notes directly to jobs from the Job Manager screen, and also view those job notes directly from the Job Manager screen would make the whole process much easier to manage. Also be be able to export reports from this screen would be great. Common questions we have are 'why is this job at x state' and 'when is the last time the client was contacted about this', and thus being able to put a reason/note at that status column would give info to those responsible for review and management of workflow. Could generate engagement letters from Job Manager?

Would be handy to be able to put in comments regarding why a job is at a particular stage rather than have additional multiple stages.

It would be great to have notes in Job Manager, to improve communication on jobs with other staff members.

Being able to add a quick pop up note (similar to in excel) on a job in the All Jobs area of XPM would be fantastic. So you can quickly write something like 'Waiting on home office' or 'Waiting on ANZ PIE income to file' or something similar - a quick easy way to figure out where the job is at but a bit more detailed that the 'status'.

Using notifications are a great way to communicate on a job and keeping the history of the same. One frustration I have is when a new note is created I get a notification to tell me a new note has been added but I do not know what the subject of the new notification is from my on screen notification. This can be a problem as some notifications take only a few moments of my time whilst others require me to set aside a substantial amount of time, but I cant tell which it is from the on screen notification. Once i click the onscreen notification, if i don't have time to deal with it right away, i will need to keep track of this elsewhere. Had i known what the subject was I would leave it on my list until i have set aside enough time. [i am aware that when we use "add a comment", the note title WILL appear in the on screen notification].I know i could use the email version to keep track but that has it own set of issues. Is there any way of showing the name of the new note upon adding or alternatively more flexibility on who receives this first notification (eg minimal) as opposed to comments subsequently made to the notification (eg a wider audience)?
