Tasks and Alerts To Support User Defined Fields
User Defined Fields are a useful feature for capturing additional information on an object without needing to ask Veson to add the field in the database. Some of these fields are used for things like sanctions controls. However, these fields are not usable in Tasks and Alerts, which means I am not able to use my custom data to control custom T&A Logic. I really would like to be use User Defined Fields within my Tasks and Alerts

Josh TromansThere is a convoluted way to do this (except for items that apply to Cargo, which actually already pick up UDF items). You can create a custom alias in the Data Dictionary, which will then appear in the Tasks and Alerts. However, I have noticed some refresh issues if trying to add to an existing Task and Alert Set, so you may need to include it in a new set.

Josh Tromans MergedThere is another feature request raised for this, which is more generic. I have also commented on a "work-around" for it that could work for the Vessel Form.

BartI fully agree with this Feature request Jonathan.... As we all working in a online platform environment, its not possible to all incorporate company processes into the tool, but we are still in need to safeguard these processes. One of the solutions is via the UDF(s), however they have to be connected to the Alert functionality.
FYI
I believe another great feature would be the connect 2 dynamic fields together into an Alert condition. I.e. Lay can timings and ETA timings. I put a feature request which can be found via the following link; (thanks for having a look into this one as well)

Claudia FennerFully agree with this feature request. We are using very extensively the user defined fields on cargoes, TC, and voyages. Hence would be very valuable to be able to create tasks and alerts.

Chris KalamarasVery useful feature which can make a difference for Chartering and Ops teams. A very valuable addition for the system with wide applicability.
