Introduction

Infor Inbox is an application in Infor Ming.le and Infor Go that shows messages for business users in a consolidated view.

The messages can be alerts, tasks, or notifications. These messages can be created from various sources integrated with Infor OS. The message life cycle is managed by the Pulse Engine.

See Concepts for details about alerts, tasks, and notifications.
