Notifications

Cadre tells people when something needs them or when something of theirs changes, by email and in the bell in the top bar. Your organisation decides which notifications it sends at all. Each member then chooses, for themselves, which of those they receive.

Who can change the organisation's notifications: Owner, HR admin.

Two kinds of notification

Notifications that ask someone to act are always sent. Nobody can switch them off, because a request nobody hears about gets stuck. Examples: a leave request to decide, or a document to sign.
Notifications that only inform can be switched off for the whole organisation, or by each member for themselves.

Emails never contain pay figures, bank details or identification numbers. They link to Cadre instead, where the reader has to sign in.

The organisation’s notifications

Settings › Notifications lists every notification Cadre sends, grouped by area. For each one it shows:

When it is sent;
Who is told;
Sent: a switch for notifications that only inform, or a lock with the reason for ones that are always sent.

Switch a notification off or on

Go to Settings › Notifications.
Use the switch in the Sent column. Above the table, Cadre counts how many are switched off.
Select Save changes. To go back to what was saved, select Undo changes instead.

A notification the organisation switches off is sent to nobody, whatever members choose.

Preview an email

Select the eye button on a row to see the email as your people receive it, with sample details. Choose Desktop, Phone or Plain text to see each version. Emails carry your organisation’s logo and accent colour from Organisation details and branding.

Each member’s own choices

Who can choose which notifications they receive: every member, for themselves.

Every member can choose what Cadre tells them, from My profile:

Open My profile and find Notifications.
For each notification, or for a whole area at once, switch Email and Bell on or off.
Select Save.

Anything that asks you to act is always sent and shows a lock. Areas that are always sent say Always sent.
