You can choose how the user receives notifications about events based on the type of event. If you choose any method, the system sends notifications when an event of this type occurs and, in addition, when a user edits the event or the user's resource is added to the event. The user may also receive a notification when the event is ended.
Event notifications sent via email and text pager contain high-level details, such as the name of the event, the name of the individual who created or edited the event, and the affected regions. To make event access even easier, the email notification also includes a link to EMResource that the user can click to open the Log In page.
You can also subscribe the user to your region's ad hoc events by selecting notification methods associated with the Ad Hoc Event type.
For some types of events you can also set a limit on notifications. If the event supports this feature, the My Resources Only check box appears in the Notification Limit column.
If you select this check box for an event type, the system sends notifications to the user only when one or more of that user's resources are involved in the event.
For details on automated alerts and notifications, refer to Notifications: Types.
