Creating a notification setting

Using Control Center, you can create a notification setting to be alerted to billing, repair ticket, and scheduled maintenance changes for billing accounts and/or services in your organization. After you create a notification setting, you can edit it to change your contact information or disable notifications. You can also delete a notification setting if you no longer want to receive notifications.

To create a notification setting:

  1. In the upper-right corner, click your username, then click Notifications.

    Control Center lists all your notifications. If you're a Control Center system administrator, you see your notifications by default, but you can use the list to select another user in your organization to view their notifications.
