Creating Notifications

You can use this information to create notifications.

  1. Right-click a file or folder on the tree by pressing Shift+F10 or your Application key. This takes you to the New item in the menu.
  2. Use your Right Arrow key to open the submenu and then use your Down Arrow key to navigate to Schedule. Press the Enter key on Schedule and the End User Scheduler will open.
  3. Press the Tab key until you hear a series of radio buttons. When you hear Notification, press the Spacebar to select this ribbon.

    Note: Be sure that your Virtual PC cursor is off during this procedure.

  4. You then need to tab to a drop-down list that states Notification Type. There are three choices in this drop-down list: Never, Always, and On Error.
  5. To open this drop-down list, you need to press your Down Arrow key. Also, in order to accept your choice, you need to press the Enter key. You can now tab through the remainder of this dialog box and enter the required information for the remaining fields, which are: Reply Address, Subject, Brief Message To, and Full Message To. After filling out these fields, you will tab to the Save button and press the Spacebar to close the schedule.

    Note: If you have not already specified a title for the schedule, you will be prompted to do so. Press the Enter key on the dialog box that appears and enter a title for the Schedule. You also need to define recurrences before you save the schedule. If you have not done so, ReportCaster will prompt you to define the recurrence of the schedule.
