Create a new notification

Prev Next

To create a new notification for a notifiable event, follow these steps:

  1. Go to Quick-access menu > Notifications.
  2. Expand the feature you wish to add a notification for (e.g. Programs).
  3. Select the three dots icon () for the event you want to add a notification to, then click Create notification.
  4. Complete the notification settings and add the notification content. 
  5. When you're finished click Save.
It is not currently possible to duplicate a notification, so you will need to create a new one for each recipient. This is something that Totara will be looking at improving in a future release.
