Description Michael Hoeller 2003-05-17 14:35:31 UTC

Version:           3.1 (using KDE KDE 3.1.1)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
OS:          Linux

it would be nice when a certain contact could be call direct out of korganizer. That means a given phone number would be dialed by a mous click out of korganizer. To avoid the redundant typing of phone numbers 
a link to kadessbook could be very handy.

e.g. Enter a reminder that a certain person should be called. Instead of typing the phonenumber the link to the contact in kadressbook is added.
Later dial can get the number out of kaddressbook

vise versa all links for a certain contact can be displayed in kaddressbook/korganizer, what provides a good overview of the contact history, may other organizers add here a protocoll option so that calls or meetings which are linked to the contaced can get a commend.

Although this entry is quite old, i second it.

It would be very nice if there would be a possibility to insert a link to a contact in a task or calender entry. Most simple would be just a link to the contact, more sophisticated would be a possibility to specify a certain way of contacting, e.g. calling or emailing a person from the task/calendar entry.

Also nice would be a way to open up a related journal entry.

Usage:
Dr. K. does research on cockroaches in Germany, Dr. B. does the same, but in Canada. They call each other on a regular basis to catch up on each others results. Since Dr. K's memory isn't as good as it once was, he needs to remind himself of calling Dr.B. For the same reason he takes notes during their calls. Therefore Dr. K. sets up a calender entry for Friday 10 o'clock. In this calender entry he can link to the contact of Dr. B. in his kAdressbook. When he opens the entry, he can click on an icon, which automatically calls Dr.B. using the specified software. He can also click an icon, which generates a journal entry for the date and time being, where he can take notes.

This may be possible in the future when Decibel is out. Until then, closing.
