This comprehensive notifications service despatches messages to stakeholders based on the occurrence of system events. Business rules dictate: timing, recipient and message. Rules that are codified within a system library of individually configurable workflow event types.

Build distribution lists to direct tailored 'signature' style messages based on personnel duties or stakeholder roles.

Develop a list of duties, assign them to individuals then subscribe them to event notifications via one of more distribution lists.

Workflow based events are configurable. For example: "Send a 'Pending Travel' advisory to all travellers departing in the next 7 days and copy all users subscribed to the Travel Bookings Community".

Messages and Distribution Lists

Compile messages then store them in the signatures library.

Build distribution lists of user: accounts, ad hoc email and phone numbers, assigned duties and designated roles (e.g. Next of Kin).

Events and Notifications

Set notification rules for workflow events for one or many sites.

Build and attach message 'signatures' to those events then compile and attach a distribution list. Or draw from the message signatures library.

Designations are generic and include: next of kin, passenger, travel agent or booker.
