Hi,

 

Is it possible to set a timestamp on an elog entry say for about 5 days in the future, when it is expired and there are no modifications with the entry you will get a mail.

I cannot find it with search in this forum or is the guides.

It can be very handy when it is possible.

When it is not available, is it possible to make a feature request for it.

This is not possible at the moment. Sounds to me more like a calendar function. What you could do however is to define an attribute of type "datetime", which you can populate with the expiration date. Then you can do a search to look for entries which are past the expiration date. But you have to do that manually like once per day or so.
