Notifications

The Notifications icon serves as a quick access point for all notification activity and provides an initial view of Job Status. The notification icon on the sidebar displays a badge with the total number of unread notifications.

2. Click See All. The Notifications page appears.

Using the Notifications Panel

The active view in the panel depends on which filters are selected and whether the grouping toggle is activated. The filter view is active when the grouping toggle is off. The grouped view is accessed by turning the grouping toggle on.

Filter View

The Filter view shows each notification individually. Click the Filters down facing arrow to expand the filter options.

Figure 1-26 Filter VIew

The filter view supports three search criteria. The Time Period, Type, and Severity inputs allow filtering on the respective fields of the notification.

Click Apply to fetch the Notifications that match the set values. Click Cancel to revert to the previously used values, and Click Reset to reset to the default values (but does not close the tab or save them).

In this view, individual notifications are listed out in detail. In order, the notifications: Type, Severity, Description, and Last Updated values are displayed.

Clicking a notification with launch able context will mark it as read and open the context. For other notifications, they can be marked as read by clicking the filled blue circle in the upper-left corner; clicking the rest of the notification will have no effect.

Group View

Figure 1-27 Group View

The Group view shows notifications grouped by hierarchy values. The group view is active by clicking the Grouping Toggle to on and only one grouping option at a time can be selected.

The grouping options allow the selection of up to two hierarchy levels to organize the notifications by. The first selection is required while the toggle is active; the second is not. Also, the group by and then by lists are mutually exclusive - selecting an option in one will remove it from the other. The buttons on the tab work in the same manner as those on the filter tab.

This view is similar to the first, save that the notifications are organized by hierarchy value. Initially, the three most recent notifications for each hierarchy value will be displayed. Click See More to load up to twenty five notifications. Clicking a notification in this view behaves the same as in the filter view.

Working with Notifications

The Notifications page provides more details about the notifications. It also displays read notifications and the ability to reassign notifications.

• All Notifications

• All Unread

• Critical

• Important

• Normal

• Filter Applied - Displays only when Filters are applied.
