Navigation

Notification Center is an application accessible through the Smart Panel in Infor OS Portal. Navigation in Notification Center relies on icons.

This section includes information on:

  • How to access Notification Center.
  • How to use the top panel of the Smart Panel.
  • How to navigate within the application.

Access to Notification Center

Notification Center is opened in the Smart Panel. To access Notification Center, click the Envelope icon in Infor OS Portal.

Note: To use Notification Center, you must have access to Infor OS Portal.

This table shows the icon to navigate to Notification Center:

Name Icon Description
Envelope Envelope icon Opens the Smart Panel in Infor OS Portal. By default, the active application is opened: Notification Center or Inbox. The tooltip includes the name of the active application.

A blue dot on the icon indicates that you have new notifications.

Alternatively, you can use the Notification Center widget in Infor OS Portal or open Notification Center in Infor Go.

Top panel of the Smart Panel

Notification Center is opened in the Smart Panel. The top panel is a fixed header area of the Smart Panel. The top panel includes controls that are visible regardless of how you use the Smart Panel. You can adjust your workspace when reviewing notifications.

Elements in the top panel:

  • Application name: shows the name of the module currently open.
  • Try New switch: changes the active application. Use this switch to open Notification Center or return to Inbox. This switch is primarily for transition and comparison during rollout periods.
  • Overlay icon: temporarily places the Smart Panel on top of the main Portal window.
  • Maximize or Minimize icon: changes the size of the Smart Panel. The Maximize icon expands the Notification Center to full screen. The Minimize icon returns the Notification Center to the previously used quarter- or half-width size.
  • Close icon: closes the Smart Panel. When you reopen the Notification Center, the application state is not reset (for example, items are selected, and the preview is opened).
