Notification Library

OPTIONAL FEATURE - Contact your RizePoint representative to enable/disable this option.

The Notification Library is a collection of pre-configured notification defaults that tell the system which email template to send for a specific type of event in the Program Compliance system, and to whom the notification is to be sent. To set up email templates, see Creating Email Templates.

These are default notifications that you configure ahead of time; then you select which notifications to use with each program. Therefore, you could create multiple notification defaults for the same notification type, and then assign one to one program, and assign another to another program. It is important to always use descriptive names when creating notification defaults, especially when creating multiple default notifications of the same type.

For example, if you want to send an email to notify locations that a task is three days past due, then you would require a notification configuration of the type PRE/POST DUE DATE TASK, named, for example Task 3 Days Past Due, and the notification would be configured to send the email when the task becomes 3 days past due. You could create another task of the same type, and name it, for example, Task 10 Days Past Due, and configure it to send the email when the task is 10 days overdue.

When configuring default notifications, you select to whom the notification is sent. The following recipient types are available, depending on the type of notification you're configuring.

  • Task Owner - Primary Contact of Location, or person to whom the task was delegated.
  • Program Owner - Primary Contact of Location, or person to whom the entire program has been delegated.
  • Role - User(s) assigned to the role that has permissions to administer this program.
  • Auditor - Person who conducts the verification audit.
  • Audit Company - Primary contact of the audit company that is responsible for scheduling the verification audit.

 

The following types of notifications exist. In most cases, each notification type may require a different email template associated with it. However, some notifications you create may be able to use the same email template.
