Description
Hi,
If a user share contact, task and or calendar and the other user modify it, an email notification is sent to the user. This is great but very simple information is given.
The email notification only gives the name of the contact, task or calendar that was modified.
The user has no clue on witch was the information modified.
in the following screen capture, I do not know what was modified, the birth date, the phone number, the address, the picture..., no clue???
So the enhancement asked is:
- Still receive a message
- Give information on what was modified with value before and after.
- A must would be to version those modification to be able to revert it if necessary (For the one who share it).
Regards
Pierre

Research direction

Define which changed fields and before/after values should be reported, then separately assess the requested versioning and revert behavior before proposing a scoped implementation and tests.
