Date Issues Description Desired Behavior
5-30 No quick nav to recent contacts - A block or other UI element should list recently accessed contacts. Allows user to navigate from administration to contact screens and to quickly access recently manipulated contacts.

4-17 browse contacts hyperlink in main drupal nav block "User clicks ""browse contacts"" and no search results display.
Users has already done a search by first name, for example, clicking on ""browse contact"" yields the results of that search, not the results of a search for all contacts."
"User clicks the ""browse contacts"" hyperlink in the main drupal nav block.
Users sees the results of a search for all contacts." Currently we are retaining 'state' on Searches unless the menu block 'Contacts' is clicked. Default state - 1st time - is to just show search form. I think retrieving all contacts as a default is an expensive operation. If we find that this better matches user expectation, we can change it easily.
4-17 view contact header unclear "view contact" header right above the contact tabs does not make it clear what contact is being viewed. The label below the tabs does not really indicate that the tabs are actions performed on the specified object. View contact header should be replaced by an icon indicating individual, org or household and a header saying "View <contactdisplayname>"
Done
4-17 bread crumbs add no value They always say home>contact management. The only navigation is to home. Home can be accessed via the icon at the top right. I suppose no other real option.Some improvements have been made. Objective is full "drill-down" path behavior but Drupal presents some obstacles.
4-17 illogical relationships should be blocked a home can be a head of household of a person. No make sense. Each relationship should have a definition that describes the possibilities. Only an organization can have employees. Only individuals can be employees. These definitions should be editable via an administrative screen.These rules are modeled in the schema and pretty much enforced in the UI. There are some problems with the display under the Relationships tab which I will be addressing this week.
4-17 import wizard navigation   Main navigation should be next, previous cancel. Cancel and reset should be the same behavior taking the user back to the beginning of the import wizard. Summary screen should have a "finish" button that takes user back to initial default screen. Buttons are now Previous, Next, Cancel. Reset button is not relevant and has been removed. Cancel currently takes user to where they were prior to beginning Import step 1 (this may need to be changed - felt uncomfortable to me).
4-17     first, previous, next, last hyperlinks in pagination should be visable at all times. They become disabled (inactive hyperlinks) when not relevant-on the first or last page.
Why is this better? Google, for example, doesn't show Previous link on first page of search results.
4-17   Clicking on the save button when creating new contact. Screen re-scrolls to place the buttons at the bottom of the screen, but the save action is not completed. Clicking on save again after the screen scrolls, saves the record correctly. appears to be fixed - just tried it
4-17     Reset button should be named "clear" It more correctly represents the action of clearing any data that has been entered.
Reset is standard web form term - not sure it makes sense to invent our own terms for this.
4-17   error message for incorrect phone number is unclear ("array" in red) Fixed
4-17     Phone number should have a mask that controls format and validation. US validation format would be (3digits) 3digits-4digits. Other countries would have different validation.This is a fairly big "ball of wax". Need to determine default behavior for contact's whose country has not been entered - and deal w/ fact that country is entered AFTER phone number, etc. Prob will make this default mask configurable by install. Will make note for v.2+
4-17   Enter a new individual via quick entry box. Record is saved Record should be saved.
Done. Goes to contact View screen
4-17 What is the anti spam disclaimer on the groups interface?   This is related to emailing - removed for now
4-17     Past group memberships should have both a start and an end date for the record.
Done
4-17   Notes field does not seem to have a length limit Notes field should have a limit to it????
This is blob type field in DB. Why do we need a limit? What should it be?
4-17   reset button on the notes inferface makes no sense and doesn't do anything when clicked. Removed
  No way to delete a note Should be able to delete a note
Added to Jira
4-17   Tags page adds some periods to the contact name ". Michelle Eugeni ." Extra periods shouldn't be in contact name.
This appears to have been fixed (we show contact name above tabs now for all View tasks). However, am adding Jira bug for this task - since it doesn't give a 'success status' on Save/Update.
4-17   Import does not specify the format of the file to upload in user instructions. Could not get the import to work for me. Will add intro text (draft). Try with .csv file - should be working now. If not, attach file and enter Jira bug.
4-17   Advanced search, groups and categories, allow the group/category records to break to two lines. For usability, the group name should be truncated so it only takes up one line.
Check the new layout. I think it's ok now.
4-17     Advanced search, individual, household and org check boxes should have a check all option, so the user doesn't have to check all three boxes (a better interface would be even better)
Since 'none checked' means include ALL, and this metaphor is the same for all fields, let's try addressing this w/ some explanatory text. I'm removing the one exception - which is the 'All locations' checkbox.
4-17   Advanced search results show up under the advanced search criteria box. The results are not obvious to the user since they are below the fold. Perhaps the advanced search criteria box could be collapsed with a +/- sign when returning the results. We could use this on the basic seach format as well. Done for Advanced Search. Let's wait and see if needed for Basic Search
4-27 new note has extra clicks User starts from edit contact screen. Clicks on new note. User goes to notes screen and has to click new notes hyperlink again User should be taken directly to the screen where the user enters their notes without requiring two clicks on a create new note hyperlink.
Removing New Note link from Edit. Notes for existing contacts are added from the Notes tab - and/or clicking New Note from View (Contact Summary tab) - which behaves as you've specified.
