Vorgemerkte

Vorgemerkte is a German term used in information systems to describe items that have been marked in advance for a specific action or status. The verb vormerken means to earmark, reserve, or pre-mark; the form vorgemerkte can function as a noun phrase or as an attributive adjective referring to such items. In software interfaces it commonly labels a subset of records that users have flagged for later processing.

Usage contexts include email clients, task managers, CRM systems, and e-commerce platforms. Examples: vorgemerkte Mails are messages flagged for follow-up; vorgemerkte Aufgaben are tasks saved for later completion; vorgemerkte Produkte are items saved in a wishlist or for later purchase. The concept supports workflow efficiency by providing a separate category without altering the primary status of the items.

Linguistic notes: Vormerken can be translated as bookmark or flag in software; however, vorgemerkte is primarily used as an adjective or noun in German UI labels. The precise labeling varies by product and locale, with some interfaces using Vormerken, Markiert, or Gespeichert rather than Vorgemerkte. See also Vormerken, Lesezeichen, Bookmark, Flagging.
