Email notifications - Activity Reports (AR)
Following your comments on having more notifications to inform you when an Activity Report is to be validated, as well as when an AR has been refused and needs an action on your side, we have created new emails that you can find below:
.
Introduction of refusal emails for ARs
Below, the example of an email notification received by the consultant, after the Operational manager of the project rejects the validation of the Activity report for any of the reasons available to do so.
| Note that you will have an active link to be able to access directly the concerned activity report. |
.
Improvement of validation reminders for ARs
Below, the example of an email notification received by the consultant, reminding them that the Activity Report for the month ongoing should be validated prior to a certain date, for a certain project and client.
| For ease of use, you will find an action link button enabling you to submit your activity report directly. |

After your insights shared concerning the ease of navigation and readability of our Activity Report page, we have had an extensive visual revamp of the page where the Activity reports page is filled in, as well as the table page where you may find the list of all ARs of the account, for the scope of the user.
.
Revamp of the AR page for clients
Special for Operationals and Managers:
The Activity Reports page has changed with your insights and feedback. Main changes include:
- Greater visibility at a glance of days worked reported by your supplier
- Find on the right upper corner of the section, a summary with all the information provided by your supplier, with the key data shown within
- Easily retrieve documentation and data added by your supplier
