Setting your notifications preferences
There are two types of notifications to set up (navigate to Settings > Notification preferences):
- Company-wide settings
- Individual preferences
Company-wide settings
Only a super admin user can view the Account settings tab to set the company-wide notification settings and select the notification types.
There are 4 options on how you want the notifications sent:
- Send to all users – notifications sent to all users based on Notifications by user level (at the end of this guide)
- Send to a central email – notifications will be sent only to the specified email ID
- Send to assigned users – notifications will be sent to assigned users only and if no user is assigned, it will be sent to the specified email ID
- Send to assigned users and a general email – notifications will be sent to both the assigned users and the specified email ID
Super admins can select/unselect the notification types to be sent at the company level (per the four options above). For example, if you unselect the New quote search type, the notification email is not sent for that event.
Individual preference
Users can set their individual preferences for the notifications.
A super admin user will see both the Account settings and Your settings tabs. They need to click on Your settings tab to select/unselect the notification types they want individually.
Regional and regular users will directly see the notification types and can select/unselect the ones they need or don’t need.
This helps each user to opt for the notification type they want to receive. For example, if your company-wide settings are set to send all notifications, and you have unselected the New quote search type, then you will not receive that alert email.
Notifications by user level
If notifications are set to go to all users:
- Super admin users – notifications for all jobs (unless turned off in their Your settings)
- Regional admin users – notifications for all job types and locations which they are set to have access to
- Regular users – notifications only for jobs they are assigned to
What does each notification preference mean?
