Automated Email Notifications

Email Notifications can be configured to automatically alert individuals when a project is modified or an action is expiring. The Notifications system can be configured with additional BCC email addresses that can be used to monitor all system notifications.

Currently there are three Email Notifications available:

  • Project Change Alert
    this alert is triggered when an projects status, client access, manager, assigned, client, or contact has been changed.
  • Action Change Alert
    this alert is triggered when an actions status, client access, parent relationship, manager, assigned, or contact has been changed.
  • Action Expiring Alert
    this alert is triggered when an actions finish date is within 2 days of the current date.

Email Notifications are configured on a project level and can be found toward the bottom of the Project Edit page. Each row of the Email Notifications list represents a User and the Permissions for that user. To configure BCC recipients and the Action Expiring days trigger refer CONFIG.

In the example shown, the Manager is configured to receive alerts on Project and Action changes, while the Client is configured to receive alerts on Action changes only.
