[ZendTo] Predefined Drop Offs

[Gregg Douglas]

Hey Jules,


I hope you are keeping safe and healthy.


I would like to bounce an idea with you?



Take a Lecturer or Tender Officer, they need to request students to submit
assignments or suppliers to submit tenders.



This person (Lecturer or Tender Officer) would then access ZendTO and
create a “Predefined Drop Off(PDO)”. In this PDO, one would preselect or
predefine all the fields and options. The Subject, would also be
predefined, but would be used as a field to group the PDOs. So, for a
Lecturer they would use the Subject to define the name of the assignment
that the students must submit. A Tender Officer would use the Subject to
define the Tender Reference. The Short Note Field could be left as a free
text block, allowing the Student or Supplier to include a note. There would
also need to be Start and End Date fields, which would define the period
the PDO will be active for.



Then, there would need to be an “Alternative” Interface for ZendTO. In this
“Alternative” Interface a student or supplier could select the relevant
active Assignment or Tender form a list of all active ones. On selecting
the required item from the list, the normal process of “Requesting a Drop
Off” would follow, like confirming the email address of the student or
supplier via the verification email. The link in this email would open the
PDO with all the predefined fields and the student or supplier can then
upload and submit the information.


It was a thought I have for a future feature.


Regards

Gregg
