Manage Which Notifications Users Receive (How-To)

Article Details

Summary

All users get notifications in the in-app Notifications Center, no matter what these settings say. Users can also get notifications by email, SMS, or push notification on a mobile device through the Gingr Notifications App.

You can also choose which types of notifications each user group gets. What a user gets depends on their group and its permissions. You can change these permissions at any time. You can also create more groups to fine-tune what each user gets. See User Groups.

Before You Begin

Important: Gingr keeps notifications and their comments for 14 days. After that, use the History page at Left-hand Navigation: Reports and More » History or a related report to track changes.

  • If you mark a notification as read, it is marked as read for every user who got it. All users can still see it in their Read Notifications lists.
  • Notifications can be local or global. A local notification shows only at the location where it was triggered. A global notification shows at all locations. See Differences Between Global and Local Notification Settings.

Steps

  1. Go to Left-hand Navigation: Reports and More » Groups.
  2. Select the Notifications tab. Each permission on this page controls whether each user group gets that type of notification.
  3. Select the box for each permission you want for each user group. The page saves your changes on its own.
