Setting up notifications

The administrator (or you, if the administrator gives you rights) needs to set up a number of parameters for email notifications to work.

Procedure

  1. An email address in the user's profile (Management > User Setup > Users).
  2. Email setup in Management > Administration > Notification Delivery and email message content in Management > Administration > Notification Content.
  3. Personal Preferences for users to notify must allow email notification (default setting). For instructions on setting up notification delivery and content templates, see the Notification Delivery and Notification Content sections of the Administration section.
  4. To set up notifications, your WorldServer administrator (or you, if the administrator gives you rights to create rules) needs to create rules that govern when and why you are notified. When you create a rule, you can choose to create a project, send notifications to a particular user, or send email to a particular user. To set up notifications, select the Email the list of assets (for detected assets) or Email task events (for tasks) check box. There are other rule parameters to configure. For more detailed information about setting up rules, refer to the WorldServer online help.
