Tip #1184: Custom activity in Timeline

$
0
0

Under the rapid release cadence one of the challenges is to keep track of what’s changed when and how the features, both old and new, are exposed to end users. It’s like being on Masterchef when today’s challenge is cooking with open fire, tomorrow – flame thrower, and the day after we’re supposed to cook a perfect steak using nothing but our body heat.

For the reasons that will remain unknown, Neil “Agile” Benson decided to create a custom activity called Special Alert. Users could create special alerts from the Other Activities button on the main Activities command bar, but not from the Quick Create button or the Timeline control on the contact form or on the related Activities view on the contact form.

Turns out, there are few prerequisites for a custom activity to appear in the timeline control:

  • Entity is added to the app
  • Entity is enabled for Mobile
  • If Timeline is filtered by specific activities, entity is added in Timeline control configuration. Configuration is accessible via Timeline control properties.

If all these conditions are true, then Timeline will show the custom activity, as attested by Mr Benson.

The Importance of Digital Transformation for Nonprofits

Cloud computing capabilities have become commonplace in the business world, but many nonprofit organizations are still operating without them. Over the past few years, however, Microsoft has taken the lead in making Azure cloud computing services available to nonprofit organizations across the globe.

Adopting cloud computing services such as cloud ERP software for nonprofits can allow these organizations to radically reduce their IT costs. Nonprofit organizations operate on donations, and digital transformation for nonprofits can help make sure that monetary resources are used as effectively and efficiently as possible.

Rather than dedicating time and personnel to installing and constantly upgrading software, cloud computing services ensure that employees have more time and energy to dedicate to fulfilling the vision and mission of their particular organization.

To date, Microsoft has donated over $2.5 billion to help advance the digital transformation of nonprofits across the globe. Their Technology for Social Impact (TSI) team is also dedicated to making cloud computing services more accessible and affordable.

The Role of AKA Enterprise Solutions in Digital Transformation for Nonprofits

AKA Enterprise Solutions is proud to be working alongside Microsoft to hasten the adoption of cloud computing services at nonprofit organizations worldwide.

NetHope brings together the world's largest nonprofits with companies like AKA in an effort to improve IT connectivity at nonprofit organizations around the globe. One of the major goal of this partnership is discovering new ways that technology can help to improve the world.

D3: A Bold Plan for Digital Transformation

Adopting new technologies is never easy or straightforward, especially for organizations that are executing difficult projects in some of the world’s most remote areas. However, both NetHope and Microsoft have created a plan to facilitate the digital transformation of nonprofits.

Known as the D3 plan for digital transformation, D3 stands for “Dream, Design, and Deliver.” Initially, organizations work with NetHope partners like AKA to dream up a vision for how digital transformation can benefit their nonprofit organization. During the design phase, the NetHope partner works with the client to design a solution that fits their needs. Finally, the deliver phase is focused on implementing that solution. Member organizations are partnered with companies like AKA to help them implement their specific vision.

Global Summit 2018

On November 5th, the NetHope Global Summit 2018 will be held in Ireland. The theme for this year’s summit is Digital Transformation.
