To reduce the number of individual notifications users receive, Enterprise PDM groups all the delayed in state notifications that occur during the specified time interval and sends a single email containing the details of the files that meet the delayed in state criteria.
Administrators or users can configure folder notifications to alert users when files in the folder have been in a workflow state for a specified amount of time. These notifications are referred to as "delayed in state" notifications.
| Previously, separate emails were sent for each file that met the delayed in state criteria.
|
| To get details of all the files that were identified as delayed in state, users had to open each notification by clicking Show Next, or by opening each notification in the Inbox.
|
| Now a single notification lists all files that are delayed.
|
| The Inbox contains that single message.
|
The notification contains the following information for each file:
|
File Name
|
Click the link to open the file in the appropriate editor.
