One button, and it does two things at once: saving is following. At first there were two – “save” and “follow this call” – but nobody keeps a call and then would rather not hear that the date has moved.
Where you save from
From the bookmark on the cards, the table and the map, without opening the record: when you are looking down a list with five candidates in your head, you want to mark all five in one go. And from the Save button on the record. The same button takes them off again.
What happens next
What you save shows up in Saved, in closing order, and we tell you if something moves: a date that changes, rules that get corrected, a window that opens, a decision that is published or a programme that runs again.
Alerts belong to the organisation and not to each person: if a colleague has already seen one, it does not come up for you again, and it says who saw it.
“Saved, but you won't hear from us”
If you have both the change alerts and the deadline alerts switched off, saving does not do much: nothing would reach you. So when you save, that warning comes up with a button to turn alerts on that takes you straight to the alerts screen. It is said at that moment, and not once you have missed the deadline on something you had saved.
Saving is not applying. When you decide to go for one, it is managed separately: it gets its own board, its own tasks and its own folder in the library.
