Issue/ concern/ question

Perhaps we can add the mandatory field red asterisk next to "percentage" in the user interface, but not make any underlying coding changes? So this informs the user that they need to populate percentage but doesn't affect the way the completeness alert currently works. |
The red asterisk is part of a reused code, which is implied for the fields marked as mandatory. We don't suggest to do as you have suggested because it will prevent us from having a cleaner code as the mandatory functionality should be consistent everywhere and this could change that. Instead, we can make it mandatory and as mentioned before, this might be confusing for users when the RC or RR are not marked as complete even though the percentage has been added. |
@praweshsth - we agree with your comment below:
As far as I can see IATI Publisher is applying the rules around The user completes country If you and the team share some ideas on how we could improve the user messaging, we'll happily comment from there? |
Both Recipient Country and Recipient Regions have 'Help' link, when clicked shows the message about it. Check the images below: We can Remove that 'Help' links and always display the messages. So that user can see it all the time. That messaging should be more clear about the rule and how they can make it complete. This message should also include about transaction level. Please refer to guidance for this in IATI standard - https://iatistandard.org/en/guidance/standard-guidance/countries-regions/ to prepare the messaging. |
When completing
recipient-country
within an activity, only thecode
element is marked as mandatory:However, if the user populates
code
alone,recipient-country
is marked as "not completed":The user has to go back and populate
percentage
to turn the status to "completed":percentage
with a mandatory asterisk so it is clearer to the user that this needs populating?narrative
section (highlighted below) be hidden within an expandable section?Reason: recipient-country narrative is a rarely used sub-element that clutters the interface and risks being populated in error. I'm considering how we make data entry look simpler across the tool - users that need this section could click an ”Add narrative" button to expand for example.
