For logged in Users, select the Toolbox Icon | Reminders and Notifications from the menu. They should then click on the Add Notification Request button. If they only want notified when events are added to a specific calendar, then change the Notification Request Type to Key Words and Specific Set and select the specific calendar.

If you have the global permission Add Others to Notification Requests, you can use the movers to add Users or Groups to your notification request. When you do this, any Users or Groups that you select will receive a notification message at the same time that you do.

For Anonymous Users, they should click on the alarm icon while viewing an event.

Note

Notification about the added event will be sent one hour after the event is added or, if the event requires approval, after the event is approved.

The first step is to create a Notification Request so that you're notified when an event is created.

Then, in System | Configuration | Email, set the option for: Re-Process Notification Requests on Item change to Yes. Once this option is set, all Notification Requests will be rechecked when an event is edited.

Note

To prevent multiple notifications, there is a one-hour delay between the time an event is edited and the time that the notification messages are sent out.

People who have User Accounts

If you're using Approvals, connectDaily automatically sends out notification messages when an event needs approval or is approved. Your Users can cut down on messages by setting their User preferences.

Have each User select the Toolbox Icon | Preferences from the menu. Then, have them check the options for:

• Disable Event and Resource Approval Request Messages
• Disable Empty Approval Messages

Additionally, check the security settings for each calendar. In particular, ensure that the options for:

• Mail approvers when this user or group adds an event.
• Mail approvers when this user or group edits an event.

are unchecked for all users and groups.

If you want to cut down on messages sent to event contacts, go to System | Configuration | EMail Configuration and set the option for Notify contacts on event add and Notify contacts on event edit or delete to no.

All Users

If an event is deleted by another user, the owner will receive a notification Email about the deletion.

If a specific user is reporting problems, check to see if they've created a notification request that matches all events, or if another user has created a notification request that affects them.

To do this, go to System | Manage Reminders. Find the Email address by clicking on the letter corresponding to the first letter of the Email address. Regular user accounts will have a disabled delete icon, while users who have created notification filters will have the delete icon enabled. If you click on the pencil icon for the Email address you will be taken to that lists notifications and reminders for that Email address.
