Notifications

Notifications are special types of Dialogue that serve as a one-way communication.

They are configured in the same way as Dialogues and similarly must be associated with an asset (vessel, terminal or company) but have the following notable exceptions:

• They cannot be replied to.
• They cannot have Hub Reports assigned within them.
• They will send an automatic e-mail message to all recipients in addition to the usual Hub Alert.

Sending a Notification

1. Navigate to the relevant asset as per Creating a Dialogue.
2. In the upper right, click Capture Vessel Data.
3. In the drop-down menu that appears, click Send Notification.
