July 2009

  • Work Effort
    • Improved and expanded iCalendar support. OFBiz can be used as an iCalendar server - enabling users to share calendar information using their iCalendar-aware client (Mozilla Sunbird, Apple iCal, Microsoft Outlook, Windows Vista Calendar, cell phone, PDA). Users can publish department calendars, project calendars, company vacation calendars, etc. They can check on the availability of a conference room, or find out when service is due on a fixed asset - right from their calendar client.

June 2009

  • MyPortal
    • System notes. It is now possible to notify the logged on user of any events which are important to him such as incoming email or tasks assigned to him.
      The last three messages are shown in the flat-grey scheme in the header. They are also shown in the mypage 'main' portal page. Can easily be extended to other system events.
      Using the firefox "update scanner' plugin at http://updatescanner.mozdev.org/en/index.html a user can be notified of new events even if you is not logged in if this plugin will interrogate the url: https://localhost:8443/myportal/control/showPortlet?portalPortletId=SystemInfoNotes&USERNAME=admin&PASSWORD=ofbiz (adapt to your system) regularly
    • System status. Also on the main portal page is a portlet of items which are 'open'. Examples are tasks which are assigned but not finished or incoming email which has not been dealt with. Also this can be extended to areas interested for the particular logged in user.
    • day/week/month calendar. On the myportal main page is now a calendar where private or public events can be posted within the same portlet. Projectmanager tasks will also appear on this calendar
