comment Notifying users when a paid trial converts to full trial
I think you'll be able to get better answers if you also share: A) roughly how much the payment is (I'll be furious if you don't remind me for charging $400, but less so for $4). B) Is it a recurring payment or one-off. C) Roughly how long you think it will take users to familiarise themselves with the system (ie, make a stay/cancel decision).

comment In a web app, how do I give explanatory text?
The best strategy is likely to be depended on how frequently users will use the system. That is, will they use it on a regular basis (daily), or is it a web app where most of the users will be new to it.

comment How to inform user that settings are in localstorage, and apply to this browser only?
local storage is the sensible choice if the app supports offline mode. Also, could be the sensible choice for allowing users to quickly try the application without the need to open an account.

Does the application also offers server sync, or is it purely local storage one?

comment Is it necessary to store chat conversation?
-"Johnny, Can you cover for Nick next Monday?" -"Sure I can". Wouldn't you want to have this in your chat history if Johnny doesn't show up on Monday?

PS, I believe your users will understand if instead of providing a button with a magnifying glass icon and a label saying 'view report 1', you just provide an icon of an eye.

I'm afraid that now the two other answers combined cover pretty much all I had to share.

Also, your question implies you validate on blur. Is it of interest to you to hear the benefits of alternatives, or is blur-validation required in your system?

I don't really get the "submit object data in a blank row at the end of a table". Which table are we talking about and where exactly are the date fields with relation to it?

comment Alternatives to selecting valid value from a list of items
Pratik, personally if I was facing the same design challenge I would take a completely different approach to yours. I cannot recall ever coming across a system that works similarly to your proposal. The question is how far do we take this? Would you like people to work this problem ground-up, or just to suggest improvements for the current proposal?
