The notification list is the destination for system generated messages triggered by workflow rules.  By default, this includes all request notifications as well as room or resource usage notifications.  Additional notification scenarios may be added through customizations to the workflow definition.

 

Instead of sending an email message automatically each time a notification is sent to a user, the system adds the notification to the list.  Users can visit the list to manage their notifications and/or subscribe to the list to get immediate or periodic email updates about their list activity.

 

To view the notification list, click on Notification List from either the Events or Resources tabs.

 

The Notification List page will display any notifications sent either directly to you or to a group to which you belong (i.e. an approver group).
