Badge Notifications

Badge Notifications

Badges are small red circles with numbers that appear over menu icons in each RideSuite application. These numbers indicate how many unread notifications are present for that app. The number's meaning can vary depending on the app—such as the number of new orders, unread emails, or pending tasks.

There are two types of badge notifications:

  • Action Required: Items that need attention or action.
  • Messages for Review: Items that are awaiting review or response.

Below is a breakdown of what each badge means for each RideSuite application:

RideInbox

  • RideInbox > Inbox
    Messages for Review
    The badge shows the total number of unread messages. The badge number decreases each time an email is opened.

  • RideInbox > New Orders
    Action Required
    The badge shows the total number of new orders. The badge number decreases as each new order is processed (accepted or rejected).

  • RideInbox > Changed Orders
    Action Required
    The badge shows the total number of change orders. The badge number decreases when a change order is processed (accepted or rejected).

  • RideInbox > Cancelled Orders
    Action Required
    The badge shows the total number of cancelled orders. The badge number decreases each time a cancelled order is actioned (the user clicks the 'OK' button).

RideConnect

  • RideConnect > Find Partners
    Action Required
    The badge shows the total number of pending invitations. The badge number decreases each time an invitation is processed (accepted or ignored).

  • RideConnect > Messages
    Messages for Review
    The badge shows the total number of new messages received since the last view. Each chat conversation shows the number of unread messages. When the message menu item is clicked, the badge is cleared. When individual chat conversations are clicked, the badge is cleared for that conversation. If individual chats are not viewed, the badge will not appear, even if there are unread messages.

RideHQ

  • RideHQ > Open Issues
    Action Required
    The badge shows the total number of open issues. The badge number decreases each time an issue is resolved.

  • RideHQ > Tasks
    Action Required
    The badge shows the total number of 'to-do' tasks assigned to your user. The badge number decreases each time a task is completed.

RideManager

  • RideManager > Allocate
    Action Required
    The badge shows the total number of orders to be allocated. The badge number decreases when an order is allocated.

  • RideManager > Unresolved
    Action Required
    The badge shows the total number of orders that are either cancelled or rejected. The badge number decreases when an order is reallocated or when the underlying sales order is cancelled.

RideRates

  • RideRates > Contracts
    Action Required
    The badge shows the total number of contracts that have been offered to you. The badge number decreases each time a contract is processed (accepted or rejected).

RideSchedule

  • RideSchedule > Scheduler
    Action Required
    The badge shows the total number of unscheduled rides. The badge number decreases each time a ride is scheduled and published.

Splash Screen & App Pop (Menu Header)
