How to use the bell (notifications) and envelope (messages) icons at the top of the screen.

Notifications (Bell) #

The bell shows system notifications, such as a record that couldn’t be saved. The bell turns orange when there’s a new notification.

Click the bell to open the notification panel. Each notification shows where it came from, the time and the details (1). Click Download to save the notifications to a file (useful when reporting a problem to Symbiant Support), or Clear to remove them (2).

See System Error Messages for what common notifications mean.

Messages (Envelope) #

Click the envelope (1) to see your latest messages. Click Inbox (2) to open all of them.

In the inbox:

• Use Show (1) to see All, Unread or Flagged messages.
• Your messages are listed on the left (2). Click one to read it on the right.
• Use the icons at the top right (3) to write a new message (pencil) or close the inbox.

Writing a Message #

1. In the inbox, click the pencil icon.
2. Fill in To, Cc and Bcc (1), the Subject and your message (2).
3. Click the send arrow (3).

Note: Emails that Symbiant sends automatically, such as action reminders, are set up by your administrator and arrive in your normal email inbox.
