How can I skip the need for an email address when registering and logging in? Our IT dept will not give an email address to each guy I want on the log.

I never thought that someone will not have an email address. One basic feature of ELOG is its automatic notification if there is a new entry, and that only works over email. It's like social networks, you cannot register for Facebook if you don't have an email address.
So if you absolutely want to omit this, just give a fake email address, like nobody@no.where. ELOG just checks if there is a "@" and a "." somewhere. |

Word of warning about fake email addresses - if your system suddenly does start to send out messages to them, you'll start getting otherwise mysterious email messages back about being unable to deliver and other such comments. I speak from experience - although in my case the puzzle was finding what was generating the messages in the first place (not elog, another program as it happened).
I suggest you also include
Suppress default = 3
in your configuration file, which also stops them being generated in the first place.
Although I was unaware (or had totally forgotten) that there was a 'Suppress email button' as mentioned in the documentation. |

Our IT dept is very strict. I'll have to see if I can get email out to a web based email service like yahoo. But they will not give each of my mechanics an email account here.

Default filtered view, posted by UlfO on Fri Nov 30 09:08:52 2012

Hi,
Is it possible to have a default filtered view in E-log?
Lets say we have a record with status finished on one attribute.
Is it possible to have a default list view that just shows records with this status?

Sure. Lets assume you have a "Status" attribute, which can be "open" and "finished", then you need
Options Status = open, finished
Quick Filter = Status
Start page = ?Status=open
The quick filter gives you a drop-down box where you can switch quickly between "open" and "finished", while the "Start page" automatically filters for "open". |

OK, Thanks!
Is it possible to use Start Page with more than one parameter?
For instance if I want to filter on two filter options at the same time, like Status= Open and Status=Ongoing

Thanks a lot!
I love this program, there is no end of the possibilities.
