Organisation Notifications

Once an organisation has been registered within the SQUIZZ.com platform, selected people who are connected to the organisation can receive notifications on its behalf.  This allows the selected people such as employees to be informed of activity generated with the organisation. Organisation notifications can occur for many aspects, such as when a person has requested to connect to with the organisation, when a customer has raised a new sales order, when a person has posted on the organisation's feeds, when an event has occurred within external business system that the organisation has connected to the platform, and many other aspects.

Overview

Once an organisation is registered within the SQUIZZ.com the person who is the administrator of the organisation will be automatically set to receive all notifications that relate to their organisation. Administrators can also choose other connected people to receive the organisation's notifications. This could allow selected employees or contractors to receive notifications, since they have been given responsibility to stay informed of activity associated with the organisation. When an organisation notification is raised, for the people who are able to receive the notification it will appear for them with the in organisation notifications menus that appear within the heading bar of the platform.

When an administrator is assigning a person to receive the organisation's notifications, they can assign the person to one or more "notification categories". This can then restrict the kind of organisation notifications that the person is allowed to receive. For example if a person is employed within the organisation as the Marketing Manager, then they may be only be assigned to the Feeds category, which only allows them to receive notifications when other people post messages or comments within the organisation's feeds. When setting up organisation in the platform you may wish to assign several people to one or more categories based on their role within the business.
