Use “My Follow-ups” to see your open tasks for an event
Inside an event, click the amber flag to see every open follow-up on that event in one prioritized list, with quick edit and jump-to-row. Tasks are segregated by event — you'll only see the event you came from.
The amber flag icon in the top toolbar opens My Follow-ups — a page that gathers every open follow-up on the event you're working in, in one prioritized list. Use it as your in-event checklist: rather than clicking through every session inside the show to find loose ends, open this one screen, see what's still unchecked, and click through to fix each one in context.
How to open it
- Sign in to Overture.
- Open the event you want to work in (from the dashboard, click the event card).
- In the top toolbar of the event, look for the amber flag icon with a small number badge — that's the count of follow-ups assigned to you on this event.
- Click the flag to open the My Follow-ups page for that event.
The two tabs
- Assigned to me — only follow-ups on this event where the Assignee field matches your name or email. Matching is loose on purpose (case-insensitive substring against your display name, your full email, and the local part of your email) because the assignee field is free-text inside the row editor.
- All open — every outstanding follow-up on this event, regardless of assignee. Useful for Owners and Producers who want to see what the whole crew has loose on the show.
When you're done, click Back to event in the top-left to return to the exact tab you came from.
How items are sorted
Both tabs are sorted by priority first:
- High priority items at the top, then Medium, then Low.
- Within the same priority, items are ordered as they sit inside the event — by session order and row order — so the list reads in show order.
Reading a row
Each line in the list shows you:
- Priority chip — High / Med / Low, color-coded.
- Event name » Session tab » Row title — the breadcrumb tells you exactly where this follow-up lives.
- The follow-up note itself — the actual to-do text.
- Assignee — whoever it's assigned to, if anyone.
- Pencil icon — click to edit the priority, note, or assignee inline without leaving the page.
- Chevron / link — click anywhere else on the row to jump straight to that event, that session tab, and that specific row, so you can mark the follow-up complete in context.
Editing inline vs. jumping to the row
Two flows depending on what you need to do:
- Quick edit — click the pencil. A small editor pops up with the priority, note, and assignee. Save and the list refreshes. Great for triage: "this one's not High, bump it to Med."
- Mark complete — click anywhere on the row (not the pencil) and you'll land in the run-of-show right at that row. The follow-up panel will be open. Tap the checkbox to mark it done and the item disappears from My Follow-ups.
"Assigned to me" — how matching works
Overture matches the assignee field on each follow-up against:
- Your display name (the name on your profile).
- Your full email address.
- The local part of your email (everything before the
@).
Matching is case-insensitive substring, so if your name is "Jane Doe" and someone assigned a follow-up to "Jane," it counts. If they assigned it to "JD" though, that won't match — the field is free text, and Overture can't read minds. To improve matching, use consistent assignee names across your team (full first name, or first + last, but not initials).
Empty state
If Assigned to me is empty but All open still has items, it just means nothing on this event has been delegated to you specifically yet. If both are empty, the flag in the top toolbar will disappear entirely — there's nothing left to track on this event.
Why this page exists
Follow-ups inside a row are great for capturing "we need to fix the lower-third color for this speaker" without breaking your flow. But across a whole conference, those little notes pile up across many sessions. My Follow-ups is the consolidator for the show — one place to make sure nothing got buried in Day 2 Session B Row 17.
