[Vtigercrm-developers] LANCER : If the list views are empty...

[Nicholas Chan]

Hi Saint,

 

Speaking as a "first time user" point of view (based off shooting this
screenshot to a few potential clients of mine), I would be confused on the
difference between the Activities and Calendar (ie. "Isn't my activities
supposed to be scheduled in the calendar) and on why they are not "two in
one" like the approach Outlook takes in listing dated scheduled events
(Calendar) and undated scheduled/unscheduled events (Activities/ToDo).
Consolidation might be a better approach as the lesser options the user
sees, yet while making facilities *sufficiently* but not overly
comprehensive would be a good thing.

Folks,

Here is an update. In the next few days, hopefully for beta.. (or post beta.
) all empty list views will be shown like the UI listed below. 

A message will be displayed in the middle of the empty list with links to
create a new record. For example, in the empty ACTIVITES view, two links
(one for CREATE AN EVENT and one for CREATE A TODO) will be displayed. This
way, when installed for the first time.. a novice or newbie can start adding
records within few seconds. 

If you have any suggestions or ideas about any add-ons, let me know soon.

-Saint
