Rather than using additional queues or flags, we could create separate customizable functionality to allow you to specify a hold location when you click the Item on Hold button or use the Item on Hold batch process. Would this be an acceptable solution?

Allow creation of custom Activity emails or disable option in Customization Manager

Hi Steve,

Thanks again - this is great feedback! I will certainly raise this issue during our next Product Team meeting. I'm not certain if not providing the option to email from an activity was an oversite or a design decision, but it does sound like we should add this option to the Activity.

As for the email templates populating unique contact information, we have another UserVoice enhancement for that here: https://uservoice.atlas-sys.com/forums/568075/suggestions/33635566. That functionality is planned for the next version of Aeon (4.1), which we plan to release in early summer. The idea is that the email templates will use site-specific entries in the Local Info table in the customization manager to populate the email template based on the database connection file.

I'll keep you posted here about the activity email button. Feel free to add a vote to the enhancement above for the site-specific emails.

Thanks!
Katie

Thank you both for your comments. Could you provide more information about the types of emails you'd like to be able to send from the activity? Something like a confirmation email in advance of the event? These details will help us write a better story to present for potential development.

Thanks,
Katie
