Notifications

A notification is content that Smart Notification delivers to subscribers. Notifications are based on InfoSets that you construct.

A notification usually contains these:

• A description of its contents or why it was sent

• Suggested actions

• Graphics or tables

• Links to related information, applications, and people

Typically, Smart Notification delivers notifications to the recipients through email. However, you can deliver notifications in a variety of ways, such as the Lawson Portal,Infor Smart Office Inbox, a cell phone, PDA, or fax machine.

Before you build a notification, you must determine the audience and purpose for the notification. You can use the Notification wizard to:

• Choose the data to include in the notification

• Choose the conditions to apply to the data

• Determine the calculations you want Smart Notification to perform with the data

• Choose when and how the notification will be delivered

• Add related links or other additional related information
