Suggestions for improving/challenges faced with the email notifications from VfP:
So many received that you end up ignoring all

Recommend an option per user & per project to select the specific notifications you would like to receive e.g. items for review, RFI’s, completed workflows where you’re the originator.

Name: Lana Vierling
Company: VCUK CONSTRUCTION (BUILDING DIVISION)
Job Title: Senior Document Controller
VfP Enterprises I work on: 1 large complex
How I engage with the notifications from VfP on a daily basis: the main manager of information on the project. I send notifications, tasks, matrixes, distributions.

Suggestions for improving/challenges faced with the email notifications from VfP:
(1-5 suggestions or challenges you face with VfP notifications) Basic/automated notifications are confused with actual manual and important issues. I think the best way is to allow the message subject to say what the issuer he has put in the subject heading.

We would require you to sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) before we can progress to the next stage and share our mocks and work in-flight with you. I'll distribute this via email for those of you who wish to engage with us here. Thats fine
Looking forward to hearing from you soon.

Kind regards

I get notified several times a day about the same 4 tasks - including weekends. As a result I've set and outlook rule to automatically archive all such notifications. If the system 'nagged' less, I might take more notice of those notifications that do come through!

How will this differ from configuring your settings and choosing "email opt-out" ? This vastly reduces the amount of notifications received - I believe Tasks and Matirx transmittals may over-ride this opt out selection though?

Personally I cannot see the need for the confirmation on any workflow, as the audit trail is already captured within the task manager on VFP, so for me I wouldn't need an option.......however if it is easier/quicker to make it a configurable option, rather than remove it, this would be a more than acceptable solution.

Is there any scenario in which you would want these 'confirmation' notifications?  As an audit trail of your actions in email possibly?   Should we leave these in as optional, or take them out altogether?
