How to mark a follow-up complete and filter your list
On the My Follow-ups page (titled Outstanding follow-ups), click the checkbox on any item to mark it done. Use the Assigned to me / All open toggle at the top to switch between just your assignments and everyone's.
Where the follow-ups live
Every follow-up you create in Overture — attached to a row inside a session — also surfaces on the My Follow-ups page (titled Outstanding follow-ups). You get to it from the amber flag icon in the top navigation while you're inside an event.
The page shows two views you toggle between, both scoped to the event you came from:
- Assigned to me — follow-ups on this event assigned to you (matched by your name or email). The number in parentheses next to the tab is the live count.
- All open — every outstanding follow-up on this event, regardless of assignee.
When you're done, click Back to event in the top-left to return to the exact tab you came from.
How "Assigned to me" matches
A follow-up shows up in Assigned to me if its Assignee field contains:
- Your name (e.g. "Randal").
- Your email (e.g. "[email protected]").
- The local part of your email (e.g. "randal").
The match is case-insensitive and uses contains-style matching, so "randal" and "Randal" and "Randal Southam" all match the same person.
Mark a follow-up complete
- Open the My Follow-ups page.
- Find the row you want to mark done. Each row shows the follow-up text, what event and session it's on, and the assignee.
- Click the small square checkbox at the left edge of the row.
- The follow-up is recorded as complete with a timestamp and drops off the open list immediately.
Switch between Assigned to me and All open
The toggle at the top of the page flips the list. Start in Assigned to me to focus on your own work. Switch to All open when you're producing and want to scan what the whole crew is working on for this event.
Owners and Producers usually live in All open. Crew and Viewers usually live in Assigned to me. Either way, what you see is always scoped to the event you came from — follow-ups never cross between events.
Where these come from
Follow-ups are created on individual rows in the run of show — click any row's "What" cell and you'll see a + button to attach a follow-up. See How to add a follow-up.
