@nnicholas7 Couple comments:
Can you also include a link to the Contact Center ticket template itself so it's clear where this came from?
Shannon asked that we add in an example of what the overflow text on the 526 PDF will look like and also tell them what will happen when there are too many files to display on the pdf. Nathan explain that at the moment that can't be added. He will have this language when testing begins. Research team will explain this to the Contact Center when we chat about the ticket.
We can call out those additions that we'll add during testing in the CC ticket itself! I'm not sure we'll chat directly?
To be updated soon: Mobile format makes it harder to read. This might be a reason to show actual emails instead of the Figma. Leaving it here for now until after we testing - along with adding an example of the overflow text - we'll also update the images

Contact Center Ticket Update: Content has been added to the correct template and sent to VEO for review. We are awaiting the next steps from VEO.
The post-submission email instructions have been submitted and accepted by VEO with no further changes. The ticket for this task is now closed. Link to Contact Center Ticket: https://github.com/department-of-veterans-affairs/va.gov-team/issues/82085
Hi @nnicholas7 great that VEO accepted the updates! If I remember right, we still planned to add a couple images once we do testing of the solution (as stated in the CC ticket). Is that still the plan? If so, should we add that to the AC for this ticket and keep it open until this is complete?
Don't forget to add the following:
From the ticket:
A couple of additional notes for context:
We will also provide examples of the emails with the placeholder filled with mock user data (first name, file name, etc.) We wanted to share what we have so that you can begin your review process and we will provide these additional materials as soon as possible.
Additional note from recent conversations - there is a separate BDD product guide we should update as well. Anneliese is working on a new process for updating Product Guides via Sharepoint, so we should revisit this once we have the examples we need from testing.
Waiting on Nathan. @NB28VT
@juliepedtke @nnicholas7 CC @lisacapaccioli I thought I had shared this already, but this is a screenshot of the mailer with the "X" fix to replace the "*" that were causing formatting issues. Note "_" also causes some issues (in markdown it gets interpreted as italics so you can see it is formatting some of the text that way) but unless VA Notify completely overhauls their templating system or we don't allow filenames with special characters (too much of a burden on the Veteran IMO) there is always going to be some potential for formatting issues. But using "X" instead of "*" will solve the majority of issues IMO since we are masking all of the filenames and "*" has some special meanings in markdown. Happy to explain on a call if that's in any way unclear.
For reference: eng ticket for overflow page of PDF and ticket for final mailer approvals
Connected with Steven via Slack and created new tickets for the 526 and 526 BDD product guide updates. Awaiting their review and approval.
Received approval on both tickets. We're good to go! cc @NB28VT
After speaking with VBA and CAIA we have determined that guidance needs to be written for the Contact Center to better help the Veteran when they call about Post Submission failures. We plan to write instructions for VSRs to be able to help when a Veteran calls about the new post submission failure email.
