What are notifications?

Messages are generated by Service Manager events, such as opening or closing a change or task. Administrators can edit these messages, add new messages, change the conditions that trigger the messages, and select who will receive the messages.

The Notification Engine normalizes notification across the applications, removing the need for each module to define its own notification process (like cm messages).

The notification engine can be called by PD rule type "Send Notifications", which can be attached to PD workflows at both the phase and workflow levels. Alternatively, you can use Process Designer Send HTML Mail rules to call HTML notifications from the Process Designer workflow.
