Notifying Reviewers that Files Have Been Assigned to Them
It is possible to configure alerts that let people who review files know that they have been assigned files. There are three different formats for these alerts: Email, text, and a message in Unite. You can choose to use any or all of them. Whichever you choose, the alert applies to all individuals who read files; it is not possible to select specific reviewers to receive alerts or to specify different alert formats for different users. Note that the ability to set up alerts is based on user role permissions: Super Users have access to this function.
