Message
Messages are sent to users by other users as well as the CMS for a variety of reasons and take a number of forms, including informative reports and requests that the user perform a specific task. They are viewable from the "Messages" tab on the dashboard. Some of the most common messages are:
- Workflow Notifications - Sent by the CMS when
a workflow enters a specific stage or is completed, these messages
are essential to the proper flow of work between users in the
CMS.
- Lock Notification - Sent by the CMS on behalf of a user who requests that another user relinquish a lock on an asset, these messages are little more than requests that a user check an asset back in so that another person may edit it.
- Publish Reports - Sent following a publish job, these reports detail the successful and un-successful components of a publish, summarizing jobs that succeeded, failed or were skipped and reporting broken links.
- User Created Messages - Users also have the option of creating a message via the 'New' menu, which they may send to any user or group within the CMS. They may contain any content a user might normally be able to insert into a WYSIWYG field.
