SNEF booth: 3 pm meeting follow-up

Updated 27 Oct 2026, after Release 2, the tips fix and the final independent review (passed). Tap any picture to open it full size. Live booth: meridian.elitez.ai/booth.

Status

T1. Step 2 "Meridian drafts the plan": slower, shows what it is built from Live

The drafting screen used to flash by. Now each source of the plan appears in turn, with the detail that makes this plan specific to the person.

Start of drafting (Recruitment)

Halfway: the first two sources are ticked, grade and manager comment show

Just before the plan opens: all four sources done

T2. Back button in the manager flow Live

Presenters can step back without restarting the demo.

Step 3, the plan: Back now sits in the header

Step 4, check the call: Back returns to the plan with marks kept

Step 5, the result and QR: Back returns to the checks

T3. Course links go to the real SWDA and IHRP pages Live

The booth is shared with SWDA, so recommending their real courses is a selling point. The link opens the provider's own course page.

Plan screen: "View course" is now a proper button

Course page: new link and QR code to the real course page

T4. Presenter tips on the manager view Live

Off by default so the booth looks clean. A presenter who needs a prompt taps Tips and gets one short card per screen.

Step 1: choose a role. Tips on: "4 sample roles; any role works"

Step 3: the four ways to learn, existing files, courses from SWDA and IHRP

Step 4: AI checks the call, then the manager signs off

T5. Lead form: "Who did you speak to?" Live

Sales needs to know which staff member owns each lead. Staff pick their name once on the start screen; the phone form then arrives pre-filled, and the visitor can change it.

Start screen: new one-time "Booth staff" setting (bottom right)

Phone form: new optional "Who did you speak to?" (here pre-filled with Penny from the QR)

Staff set to Penny: the step 5 QR now carries the name

T6. Copy check: Meridian is a suite, the booth shows Meridian LMS Live

The full list of changed wording is in the table below. Screens that carry the new brand line:

Chooser heading: "See Meridian LMS in 90 seconds"

Start screen intro: "See Meridian LMS in 90 seconds…"

Course page footer: "Meridian LMS does not run this course…"

All changed wording

T7. Works on any staff device Live

Checked at laptop (1440, 1280), iPad (1366, 1180, 1133, 1024, 820, 768 wide) and phone (390) sizes. Laptops and iPads already fitted; the fix is for phones, where step 5 used to run off the screen. The phone screens are still small (the booth is built for tablets), so a dismissible "Best on a tablet or laptop" note shows once.

Phone (390 wide), step 5: before it ran off the screen; now it fits and the note shows

Phone (390 wide), step 3: manager screen with the new note

Laptop (1440 wide), step 3: unchanged, still fits

iPad (1024 wide), step 3: unchanged, still fits

T8. One-page staff cheat sheet Live

A single A4 page for everyone on the booth, including people who do not sell the LMS.

Decisions we made for you

Needs your OK

1. T6: phone picture shows just "Meridian". The result screen's phone mock-up says "Meridian" (an earlier design choice). Change to "Meridian LMS"?
2. T6: spoken QR label. Screen readers say the QR goes to "meridian.elitez.ai/snef" but the code opens "elitez.ai/snef". Which address should it say?
3. T6: email wording. "Thanks for visiting Meridian at SNEF" (old fallback email) and the sender name "Meridian at Elitez". Both read as the whole suite. Keep?
4. T1: made-up demo content. Grades B+/B/B+/B, the employees' feedback lines and "CV on file" are invented. Keith to confirm they are fine to show.
5. T3: course links found without Keith. Three provider pages listed by SWDA/IHRP: James Cook Institute (Generative AI At Work), ASK Training (AI for Recruitment) and Stevenson Huréca (HR Operational Excellence). Keith to confirm they are the right pages, or send his own. The ASK page blocks automatic checks.
6. T3/T2: two back controls on course pages. Course pages show both the header "Back" and the older "Back to the plan". Both go to the same place. Remove the older one?
7. T8: "(confirm with Keith)" items. Exact names of USP components 1–2 (consultants) vs 3 (product); the WDG / JR+ grant line; what to say about logins; mandatory courses with deadlines (talking point only, not on screens).
8. Buttons look smaller on iPads. The whole booth screen scales to fit, so buttons designed at 44 px show at about 33–35 px on iPads (full size on laptops). Same for every button, as before. Fine for trained staff; changing it now would risk every layout just checked. Accept, or change after the event?
9. T4: step 5 tip wording. It says "hand over the name card"; it could read "take their name card". Copy-only fix, needs another quick release. Fix or leave?
10. T5: lead list colour. In Derrick's lead list, an empty "Spoke to" cell is a slightly different grey from other empty cells. Cosmetic; fix after the event?
11. Clean-up after the event. Delete the 2 test leads made for QA (ids in the technical record) and the pre-change database backup on the server.
12. Screenshots not archived. The test screenshots stay on the server only, not on Google Drive: no Drive connection is set up on this server. OK, or set it up?

What's left

• Not tested: real iPads and real phones (all checks were in a desktop browser at those sizes), a real phone scanning the new QR codes (all decode in tests), and the lead list page while logged in as Derrick (checked in the database and code only).
• One course page (ASK Training) blocks automatic checks, so it was confirmed from IHRP's listing only.
• One booth unit test is flaky (1 failure in 8 runs; keyboard focus on the employee screen). It is not in this release's changes.
• After the event: delete the 2 test leads and the backup; decide the OK items above.
