Highlighting multiple changes

Kylie D'Costa

Team,

 

I am using the 'Highlight changes' feature, currently set to highlight any change made within the last day in bright yellow - great.

 

However, due to our work flow it causes me a problem.

When we enter an entire new row it goes bright yellow (as it should). However, then, if another user makes an amendment to one of the cells IN THAT row, it does not stand out, becuase the ENTIRE ROW remains yellow until the 24 hour period is up.

 

I need to use the 'day' time period as it works great for our workflow, but I need a way to identify any further changes made within that row already highlighted??????

 

I'm using email alerts as a work around now (ie, send email if anything in coloumn x and y change), which is working, but its a bit clunky.

 

What i really need is a way to have 2 or more 'Highlight changes' function - ie: turn yellow for changes in the last day and turn pink for changes in the last hour.

 

Any ideas????

 

Thanks

Until they implement something like that, you can shift back and forth the time period.

Be aware this impacts all users.

Hi Kylie,

 

Craig is correct, you'll need to change the highlight changes time period to get what you need. I've got your vote down for a way to create multiple highlight changes rules on our enhancement request list for further consideration.

Thanks guys - hadn't thought about changing the time period.

Might play with that and see how it works.

 

As always - thanks for the help
