Email and Notifications Rule
There are two types of Notifications in MyRBQM:
- UI Notifications are records visible in the list in the User Interface.
- Some periodic emails (they are missed notification emails of different periodicity) contain information about notifications, but they don’t appear at the same time as UI Notifications. They are sent much later and contain information about only unseen (not browsed) UI Notifications.
UI Notifications:
UI Notifications (bell icon) Lifecycle:
Notification is marked as seen only if a recipient opens the list of notifications containing that notification in MyRBQM® Portal User Interface.
Designee can be a user or a group (all users in that group). Ticket subscribers by default include a ticket designee and a ticket creator (if that creator is a user and not the system). They also may include users who subscribed after the ticket was created.
UI Notification is created immediately if:
- A ticket action is activated/reviewed/closed - for its designee & associated ticket subscribers
- A ticket action is created/deleted - for subscribers of the associated ticket
- A user is subscribed/unsubscribed to a ticket - to the subscribed user
- A ticket is created - for a designee
- A ticket is activated/closed - for subscribers of the ticket
- For a ticket's Root Cause Analysis is created/closed/reopened - for subscribers of the ticket
- A ticket is assigned - to a new assignee (another name - a new designee & ticket subscribers)
Emails:
List of all emails in the MyRBQM® Portal:
- The Daily Missed Notifications (ticket/ticket actions) email is sent every day at *Daily. Parameters: “threshold”: 20, “cap”: 40. That means:
