Badge Widget

Streamline user alerts and pending tasks with in-app badges similar to a mobile phone

Purpose

This custom widget includes a simple badge that can have a custom color, image, and number of alerts for showcasing alerts and notifications. This works best for a supervisor or frontline manager.

Setup

The Badge Notification Custom Widget makes use of three properties and one event. The properties being used in this widget are:

• Image: A custom image can be used for the icon of the badge notification
• Icon Color: The color of the badge can also be easily modified
• Num. Alerts: The red notification count can be programmatically updated as a variable

How it works

In most scenarios, the Tulip developer can build an app that updates the notification count variable based upon a list of tasks or work orders assigned to a given individual logged in. Other use cases can include accountability board updates for quality managers, maintenance managers, and other frontline managerial roles.
