Live notification in the system

Various actions that users perform in Q.wiki trigger notifications. This ensures that the content in Q.wiki remains up-to-date and that users are informed about changes and/or need for action. 

If new notifications are available to you, you can recognise this by the bell at the top right. In addition, a red dot appears on the icon in the browser tab.

Notification by e-mail

To ensure that you receive your notifications even if you are not logged in to Q.wiki, you will receive a daily summary by e-mail. This notification is only triggered if there are actually notifications waiting for you in the Q.wiki.

In addition, you have the option of activating immediate notifications by e-mail. You can activate this function individually under your personal profile.

Overview of notifications

The following list shows the actions that trigger notifications. 

Please note: Only the actions that trigger notifications by default are listed. Deviations from this can result in particular from a customised release workflow and individually configured module.

Note:

To reduce the flood of notifications, the system will not send any notifications if you are both the “initiator” and the “addressee”. This applies to the following scenarios, for example:

• You create a task or action via task management and assign the task to yourself.
• You ask for approval but are entered as the person responsible for the page. 

Unfortunately, it is not possible to force an email for such combinations.
