This documentation instructs provides instructions on how to integrate notification notifications with a functionality.
For example: we may want to notify a specific set of users about the creation of a new savings account, so that those users can act upon those notifications and take specific actions like approve/activate the savings account.
First of all, let's configure notification for the above example and , then we can take a few more examples to make you comfortable with configuring notifications.
Note :- We all should agree on the fact It is imperative to understand that we need to send notifications only to those users who have some work related to that notification else. Otherwise, it is not useful to send a notification to any user who can't do do anything with that notification.
Every user in an organization has some role associated with itthem. You can To see which role is associated with a user by navigating to Admin >> Users and then click , follow these steps:
- Navigate to Admin >> Users.
- This will display a list of Users. Click on the name of the user
...
- whose details you wish to view (NOTE: you can use the search bar on the top of the page to filter users by name).
Now, if you want a user to receive a notification whenever a new savings account is created (so that it they can activate or /approve that account then), you need to make sure that the role of that user contains the permission to either approve or /activate the savings account.
You can see what permissions a role contains by navigating to Admin>>System>>Manage Admin >> System >> Manage Roles and Permission then click Permission and then clicking on the name of the role for which you want to see the permissions.
For our above example, we need the permissions "ACTIVATE SAVINGS ACCOUNT" or "APPROVE SAVINGS ACCOUNT" to be checked for the role of a user who will receive these notifications. Make sure Ensure that the user who will receive the notification should also have the permission to read the savings account because it has they have to activate or /approve that savings account.
With this, our notification is configured and the user will be able receive a notification whenever a new savings account is created, and it . They can then act upon that notification to perform the any permitted actions like approve or disapprove.
Following is the list of notifications which you can configure, and in the front of it are the permissions of a role which needs need to be checked. Just Simply pick a notification which you think needs to be generated for a user then check the corresponding permissions in a the role of that user.
