Description Donna 2020-06-16 19:58:22 UTC 
It would be extremely helpful if there was a "Last Saved" or "Last Edited" field in the "Modify notice" window.  That way, users would know when that notice was last updated.  This data should not show in the notice that is sent to patrons, just visible to staff so they can quickly seen when that notice was last updated.

Comment 3 Christofer Zorn 2020-07-16 15:05:38 UTC 
This would be a fantastic addition, however if I could throw another suggestion into this request. Along with the editing date, would it be possible to log what the notice was prior to the changes? This might be helpful in having to backtrack or prove what the guts of a notice was before the change rather than having to find someone who received the notice to see what happened.

I think the date field would be a great addition, however if we can keep the history that would be great.

Thanks!

Christofer

Hi Christofer, there is already a bug for adding a Notices log - bug 14233. I think both things would be great to have, but better to keep them as separate features in bugzilla.

Katrin - love this! Everything works great, except the toggle/sort in the last updated column does not work - the notices do not get sorted by date/time.
