Notification System

The system of notifications about changes in tasks, new incoming messages, disruption of connection with the server and available updates is implemented in TeamWox. Corresponding icons appear to the left of the indication of your system login or instead of the user icon in case of the two latter ones:

• The icon means the assigning of new task or modifications in the existing one. If you press on it, you will be passed to the viewing of task.
• The icon means that a new message has been received. If you press on it, you will be passed to the viewing of mail.
• The icon means the assigning of new request or modification in the existing one. If you press on it, you will be passed to the viewing of request.
• The icon informs about changes in the information about a document which is assigned to the user for reading or signing. This notification also appears when a document is read or signed by one of the assigned users and when a comment is added to the history of a document.
• The icon informs that a user has been invited to a new event event in the calendar, or that a comment has been added to one of existing events. Author of an event also receives notifications if an invited user has agreed or refused from joining the event.
• The icon notifies about new topics and comments on the board.
• The icon notifies about new comments in the history of organizations. Such notifications are sent to the managers of organizations and to the users assigned to them.

Notifications about different events in the system can also be received using TeamWox Communicator.
