Messages Row

The Messages row only displays when the Messages view is selected. See Bidding Messaging List – View.

The Messages row will always be the top level row. See Bidding Messaging List – Groups - Top Level. It will show in a collapsed view with only the Messages Rows showing.

The following is an example of the columns displayed for the Messages Row.

A Messages row will always have a Contact row below it and a Messages row can be expanded out to see the Contact Row. See Bidding Messaging List – Groups - Expanding and Collapsing for more information.

The Messages Row columns can not be changed, however, if a Messages row is expanded out to show Contact rows, the columns for the Contact rows can be changed. See Bidding Messaging List - Related Settings.

The Messages columns can be sorted, see Bidding Messaging List – Navigation - Sort Columns.

The Messages columns can be moved. See Moving Columns.

Messages Row Columns

The following is a description of each column in the Messages rows:

Type

Type of message. The standard types are:

  • Invitation to Bid
  • Addendum Notification
  • Bid Reminder
  • Project Message
  • Unsent

Note, system administrators can set custom bid forms so there may be more than the above (contact JobPlanner for more information).

Only the messages types that are applicable for this project are displayed (so the entire list above may not be show).

Unsent shows those Contacts not yet sent a message (and they can actually be selected to have a message sent to them).

The statuses will have a colored bar to represent the status and will display with the number of companies with that status.
