Message Window

The Message window allows you to add or edit messages that are displayed on the Messages page of My Portal. This window is accessed by clicking Create Message or Edit Message on the My Portal tab of the Ribbon, or by double-clicking a message.

To specify the user(s) who will see the message, click the arrow in the Address To field.

Select All Users to address the message to all users associated with the project.
To address specific members or notification groups:
- Select the Selected Groups/Users option to enable the remaining address options.
- Then select the check box for each desired notification group and/or individual user. (Note that you can click the + beside each notification group to view the members of the group.)
- When you are done specifying who will see the message, click inside the Address To field again.

Enter a subject and the message details, then specify the priority level of the message. Messages marked as low priority will be displayed in My Portal with a blue indicator, medium priority messages with a pink indicator and high priority messages with a red indicator.

Finally, specify the date range during which the message will be displayed. If e-mail notifications are enabled for the database, you can select the Also send this via e-mail option to send an e-mail copy of the message to the recipient(s).
