It would be beneficial to be able to message a user.
Here are a few use cases:
- message user to remind them that there is a meeting
- message user previously collected on item (point of contact, person responsible)
- micro action that is not worthy of a task (comment on item, approval, deleted item)
Here is a great way we have used this in the past. If an item awaiting comment from a client is not interacted with for 48hrs, then we email them a nag reminder. We send a message to the project lead a few hours before the email is sent to give them a heads up (sometimes our team has taken longer than 48hrs to complete the client’s request so we do not want to send a reminder).
