Introduction to Notifications¶
Notifications will work either in conjunction with tasks or independently. Send a notification to users to notify them of any system outages. The user will receive the notification by way of a popup (toast) message, or they will see via a notifications icon.
There are two types of notifications that can be created:
-
Information. For example, 'budgets can now be started' or 'budgets are locked and no further changes can be made'.
-
Warning. For example, 'Planned System Maintenance today at 9pm'.
Examples of notifications are:
- We are currently running the generator, please do not access xxxx.
- Budgets are due for approval.
- Budgets are now locked. No further changes can be made.
- Latest software updates applied.
- General Ledger data refresh complete.
- Your system Administrator has granted you access to Payroll.
- Restore point for General Ledger 2023 Budget created.
- The Budget 2023 will be locked at the end of the day.
To round out the notifications module/function a notifications widget can be added to dashboards.
