Some solutions allow you to customize the notifications that the system sends. These notifications alert users, usually by email, to important events that need attention.

Select the Notifications tab in your profile page to manage notifications. If you do not see the Notifications tab, none of the solutions you can access allow you to manage notifications. If you are an account administrator, you can manage notifications for other user accounts on the Users & Permissions page.
