Notification Rules Overview

Article sections

    Introduction

    Notification rules, also known as notification configurations, are predefined instructions or parameters that determine when and how notifications are generated and delivered within a system or application. These rules define the conditions, triggers, and actions associated with sending notifications to users or stakeholders.

    Bizgaze’s “Notification Rules app” allows you to create and manage rules for notifications targeted at specific contact groups. You define criteria and parameters such as triggers, delivery methods, and content.

    Stage Workflow

    Default stages of the Notification Rules App:

    Field name Description
    Active The notification rule that is currently operational and awaiting approval for further process
    Inactive Notifications associated with an inactive rule are not being triggered or delivered
    Deleted The Deleted stage indicates that a notification rule has been permanently removed or deleted
