RAA - request for notification when 'Collect Inventrory' is completed

After all 'Collect Inventory' options have been selected and the process has been started you suppose to go to 'Analysis queue' to see the progress by refreshing the screen. This let you see the process and wait until it is completed. If you 'Collect inventory' only on one module, the process may be finished even before you get to the screen. This is request to send notification that inventory has been collected, so you don't have to press 'refresh' to get updates or wonder if process has been completed.

    The request is very logical, but, in the Asset Analyzer's "context less" browser interface, it would be hard to implement without changing the user interface framework to be able to push notifications from the Asset Analyzer server. An alternative could be to include ability to send e-mails from the Asset Analyzer. This is unlikely to be of value for the use case provided in this request. This request is not likely to be addressed in the RFE response time frame of two years.
