Manage Email Notifications & Reminders

Learn how notifications work in Workfacta and how to manage them.

Updated over a week ago

Workfacta sends email notifications to keep you updated on important activity - such as new Actions, Discussions, reports, and meeting outcomes.


Managing notification settings

You can enable or disable notifications by going to:

Main Menu → Setup → Notifications

Note: Only users with the Enterprise Admin role can manage notification settings for the team.


What notifications are sent?

By default, notifications are enabled for activity relating to:

  • Actions (created or updated)

  • News items

  • Discussion items (Opportunities, Challenges, General Discussions)

  • Reports

  • Meeting minutes

  • User invitations

You can switch these on or off individually in the Notifications tab.


Who receives notifications?

Only users relevant to the activity will receive emails. Examples:

  • An Action owner will be notified when the Action is created or updated

  • Updates to Discussions notify all team members involved

  • Meeting minutes are sent to all meeting attendees


Reminders

Workfacta can also send automated reminders to help keep execution on track. There are three reminder types:

  • Update Reminders - prompts users to update assigned items

  • Management Late Update Summary - shows overdue items across the whole team

  • Overdue Update Reminders - sent to line managers

Note: Line managers will not receive overdue reminders if they already receive the management 'late update' summary.

You can manage reminder timing and settings under:
Main Menu → Setup → Teams → +Add Reminder
