Notifications


You are here: InLoox Support Knowledge Base Online Help InLoox Web App 11.0 All Topics | InLoox 11 Web App InLoox Account Settings Notifications

Since InLoox 11.0, notifications about changes in InLoox projects are sent centrally via the server. This applies to all InLoox editions.

If you have worked with InLoox PM so far, this means that you can no longer control on-prem notifications individually in InLoox 11 to the extent that you could in InLoox PM up to version 10.2.9.

You can currently customize the following settings:

Customize the header of the notification emails

You can upload an image for the header of the emails:

  1. In InLoox Web App, click on your profile picture in the bottom left corner.
  2. Click Account Settings.
  3. Click Notifications.
  4. Under Customization header image for templates, you can upload a PNG file (600x117px in size).

NOTE This feature is only available in the InLoox Enterprise and InLoox On-Prem editions.

Frequenz der InLoox Benachrichtigungen anpassen

In the InLoox settings, you can adjust the frequency of the notifications about changes in your account that InLoox automatically sends via email.

By default, InLoox sends notifications immediately after changes are made. You as an admin can customize this default setting for the entire InLoox account:

  1. In InLoox Web App, click on your profile picture in the bottom left corner.
  2. Click on Account Settings.
  3. Click on Notifications.
  4. Under Frequency (Default), you can now set the frequency.

However, every InLoox user can personally change this default setting. The user setting has priority over the account default, which is only used as the initial setting for new contacts. This is how you define the personal settings:

  1. In InLoox Web App, click on your profile picture in the bottom left corner.
  2. Click on Account Settings.
  3. Click on Personal.
  4. Under Notifications, you can now select the frequency.

InLoox saves the changes automatically.

Info Some notifications are set by default and their frequency cannot be adjusted. These inlcude:

  • Due date of tasks:
    • for tasks starting today & tasks due today, there is a one-time notification every morning at 6am.
    • For overdue tasks, the notification is sent every hour once a task is already overdue.
  • Administrative notifications (e.g. about invitations of new users) are always sent immediately.

Disable notifications about changes in specific areas

In your personal InLoox settings, you can disable notifications about changes in different InLoox areas. By default, this setting is always enabled.
