Overview of Notifications Setup

Sales users can receive multiple types of notifications that relate to their daily work.

This chapter focuses on notifications about changes to leads, opportunities, accounts, contacts, and other sales objects. For example, you can notify salespeople whenever they're assigned as the owner of a lead or a task.

In the Sales application, administrators can have the notifications delivered in multiple ways:

  • Under the Notifications (the bell icon)
  • On the browser page
  • Sent using email

In CX Sales Mobile, the notifications can be pushed like other mobile notifications or they can appear under the bell notifications icon.

Here's an overview of the setup steps:
