Hi,

How long does an Event booking request stay in a Tasks Block?

i.e. if a manager did nothing, would it disappear?

I've checked the help page but there's no indication. It assumes the person will either accept or reject it, not do nothing.

Thanks,
Larry

Hi Larry

As far as i am aware the messages will stay in the task block or message report until they are dismissed.

There may be a cleanup task like there is for Site Logs but can't see this in the scheduled tasks.

Regards

Thanks Craig.

I had a manager ask about a approval request.

The task was not in the task block, but it had been more than a month since the request was made.

There's nothing in the logs so I'll have to assume the manager accidently dismissed it sometime during that time.

I'll do a test and load a task on a task block and see if it goes anywhere after a month.

Better late than never.

I did a test and after a month the task did disappear from the tasks block.
