Notifications to users
If you want to inform BPC users about certain events, you can use the notification function for this. This can be, for example, planned maintenance work or . You can also specify which persons (groups) receive the notification and whether they must be confirmed or are only for information purposes.
Call
The notification function is located in the administration area () in the Overview > Notification tab.
Set target group
In the target group, recipients (groups) of the notification are defined according to the rights management of the BPC. A distinction is made between two target groups:
-
Recipients who have a role.
-
Recipients who are assigned to an organization
Depending on the type of recipient group, a list of either organizations or roles is offered that are available in the BPC.
Accordingly, you can define one or more recipient groups based on membership of an organization or also address individual roles.
If you want to define several organizations or roles, click on the corresponding fields in the drop-down list one after the other.
Define the urgency of the display
Depending on the type of display, the messages appear in different places on the user interface. A distinction is made between three different display options:
-
Display to be confirmed
A pop-up window opens on the user interface of the target group. This is only closed again when the user confirms.
-
Temporary display
A message appears on the target group’s user interface, which disappears again by itself after a short time.
-
No display
The notification only appears in the notification history.
There are also different notification types that make the urgency more visible to the recipient:
-
Error
-
Warning
-
Information
All notifications, regardless of type or display, are saved in the notifications menu and can be read there again.
Send notification
Once you have selected or filled in all fields, click the Send notification button.
