Home > EMResource > Guide - Preferences > Update Status Change Preferences


The My Status Change Preferences page allows you to specify how you want to be notified when certain statuses change for resources and sub-resources to which you have access. The fields that appear in the My Status Change Preferences page depend on the type of resource and the status types associated with it. From this page you can add a new preference, edit an existing preference, and delete notifications.

For numeric and saturation score statuses, you can specify Above and Below. They are primarily used for setting notification thresholds. For example, a user can choose to be notified only when an ED's saturation score exceeds a certain number.

When looking for sub-resources, if you want to narrow your search results you can enter both the sub-resource name and the parent resource name.

For details on automated alerts and notifications, refer to Notifications: Types.

Note:

  • When searching for sub-resources, you can enter both the sub-resource name and its parent resource's name in the Name field. This will help narrow your search results.
