Comments and the Inbox

Talk about the work where the work is. Every collection, product, material and purchase order has its own comments, so the discussion stays next to the thing it's about.

#Where you can comment

• A Collection
• Each Variant of a product
• A material or a component
• A Company in the Library
• A purchase order

Open the comments with the comments button at the top of the record.

Files have their own comments too. On a Variant, material or component, hover a file and choose the comment icon. Handy for feedback on a sketch, a tech pack or a lab dip.

Everyone in the Workspace can comment, viewers included. So your suppliers and agents can join the conversation for free.

#Write a comment

1. Type in Write a comment...
2. Press Enter to send.

While you write:

• Type @ and a name to mention someone. They get a notification.
• Type # to point to one of the record's files.
• Choose Attach file, or drop a file on the panel, to attach one.

#Threads

Open thread on a comment shows its replies. Answer with Reply to thread.... One question, one thread, and the answer stays with it.

Your own comments have Edit and Delete in their menu.

#The Inbox

The bell in the top bar is your Inbox. The number on it is how many notifications you haven't read.

You get a notification when someone:

• mentions you,
• replies to a comment you started, or
• comments on a file you uploaded.

One comment gives one notification, and your own comments never notify you. Click a notification to open the comment. It's then marked read.

All, Unread and Read filter the list. Each notification's menu has Mark as read, Mark as unread and Delete. The Inbox's own menu has Mark all as read and Delete all read.

#Next

• Team, roles and billing
• Purchase orders
