The Next Activity & Last Activity indicators

The Next Activity Indicator is an indicator you can add to your layouts that will display the next open activity scheduled with the current record (contact, company or group).

The Last Activity Indicator is is similar except that it displays the last closed activity scheduled with the current record (contact, company or group).

The indicator can monitor one or more activity type and is fully customizable.

In the following video, we demonstrate how to add the indicator to a layout and how to set it up.

To customize the date format, look for the date format property. Here are the possible values:

  • Standard date and time formats like Short date (or simply d), Long date (or simply D) and all the format specifiers explained in details here.
  • Custom Date and Time Format specifiers explained in details here.

Here are a few examples:

  • If you want the date to appear like this: 9-nov-09, use d-MMM-yy
  • If you want the date to appear like this: 09-nov-09, use dd-MMM-yy
  • If you want the date to appear like this: 11/09/2009 9:00 AM, use MM/dd/yyyy h:mm tt
