Gap Analysis: OMGT Task Management

Context: Order Management (OMGT) - OrderController Scope: Callbacks (Legacy) and General Tasks (Missing)

1. Executive Summary​

The current system relies on a legacy "Callback" feature that is disconnected from the modern "ToDo List" ecosystem. Furthermore, there is no capability to assign generic tasks (e.g., "Check Visa", "Send Invoice") directly from the Order context, leading to lost actions and reliance on external tools (Post-it notes, Excel).

2. Analyzed Scenarios​

FeatureCurrent StateDesired StateGap Severity
Assign CallbackEmail-based "Fire-and-Forget". No integration with ToDo List.Creates a ToDoListItemNG.🔴 Critical
Close CallbackBinary toggle (Open/Close). No specific outcome (e.g., "Voicemail left").Resolution Status (Done, Postponed, Cancelled).🟠 High
View CallbacksLocal list on Order Page Only. Invisible in global Dashboard.Visible in "My Tasks" Dashboard.🔴 Critical
General TasksNon-existent. User cannot create a generic task.ability to create any type of task linked to the Order.🔴 Critical

3. Detailed Gaps​

3.1. The "Fire-and-Forget" Problem (Assign)​

  • As-Is: Creating a callback sends an email. If the recipient deletes the email, the task is effectively lost unless they check the specific Order page.
  • To-Be: Notifications should be auxiliary. The "Task" must exist in a persistent, global worklist (ToDoListNG).

3.2. The "Outcome Blindness" (Close)​

  • As-Is: The user clicks "Close". We don't know why or what happened.
  • To-Be: When closing, system should ask: "Outcome?" (e.g., "Contacted", "No Answer - Rescheduled").
  • As-Is: OrderController has 100% no references to ToDoListNG or generic Tasks.
  • To-Be: A "Tasks" panel should replace "Callbacks", allowing creation of both Callbacks (phone) and Generic Tasks.

4. Recommendations​

Phase 1: Bridge the Gap (Sync)​

  • Modify CallbackComponentService.Create to also insert a ToDoListItemNG.
  • This makes Callbacks visible in the Dashboard immediately.

Phase 2: Modernize UI (Task Panel)​

  • Replace the _Callbacks.cshtml partial with a new _TaskManagement.cshtml.
  • Allow selecting Task Type: "Callback" vs "Generic".

Phase 3: Enhanced Lifecycle (Resolutions)​

  • Update CloseCallback to accept a ResolutionId.
