Edit Notifications

Editing a notification ensures that the messaging is accurate and the appropriate people receive the notification. You can also configure how the recipients receive the notification:
In App Notification
,
Email Notification
, or both.
You can create multiple versions of the same notification by user locale as needed. This can be helpful to ensure the intent of the message is clear across languages and locations. Note: The ability to view and edit notifications in non-US English language is available only when using the localization capability. VNDLY-supplied content is already translated in the languages we support. Any language content that you customize must be translated separately. VNDLY won’t automatically translate non-US English language content.
  1. From the header, select
    More
    Company Settings
    .
  2. Under the
    Communication
     section, click
    Notifications
    .
  3. Click
    Edit
     to the right of the notification you want to modify.

    Templates
     tab, click
    Edit
    .
  5. On the
    General
     tab, select the recipients and the method of delivery.
    VNDLY displays recipients in context user groups. These recipients vary depending on the context of the notification and its triggering event. Example: When you select the
    Contractor
     context user group as a recipient for an unsubmitted timesheet notification, VNDLY sends the notification to the specific contractor associated with the timesheet.
    VNDLY will send notifications to all the recipients that have a method of delivery selected.
  6. (Optional) Select additional recipients. You can search by roles, role tags, user groups, users, and email addresses. Example: When you select the
    Program Team
     role tag, VNDLY sends the notification to everyone who has the Program Team role tag on their user profile.
    When a recipient belongs to a selected context user group and is also an additional recipient, they receive only 1 notification.
  7. On the
    Notification Content
     tab, select the language you'd like to modify notification content for.
    Each notification type displays as a preview of what's been entered.
  8. Click
    Edit
    .
    You can edit the text for each content type as needed. You can add system variables as needed to customize the content. Example: You could insert the
    name
     system variable to personalize the message with each recipient's name automatically.
    You have additional formatting options when modifying the
    Email Content
    .
Your notification template, Checklist Action Expired, triggers when a checklist item has not been completed and has expired. You selected
Contractor
,
Resource Manager
, and
Vendor
 as recipients. You added the
Administrators
 user group as an additional recipient. A contractor has failed to complete the onboarding checklist on a job. This triggers a notification. VNDLY sends the notification to: the contractor, the resource manager, the vendor that is associated with the job, and everyone in the
Administrators
 user group.
