The Notification Setup module can create default email messages that will be sent out automatically to each recipient listed, as well as other recipients specified in the module sending the notification. Those emails will either be sent automatically, or are triggered manually from the different modules. For automated messages, settings within the modules will control when the notification is sent.
Email notifications work for all modules that support notifications
Note: The system administrator must go to the Lucity Administration Tool > System > Settings > Email tab and configure the SMTP Server, and From Email Address before the email notifications will work.
Considerations
Who is the notification going to? Does anybody need to regularly receive this email that won’t get it automatically based on other module's settings?
What information is important to include in this email? Is there any information that the program needs to auto-insert from the module into the subject or body of the email?
Enter a unique title for the notification in the Notification Label field. This is the label that will appear in relevant notification pick lists.
Select Email as the Notification Type.
Select the module this notification will be used for. This will determine which module’s notification pick list the template will show up in.
Enter the email address of each recipient in the Recipient List field.
Note: These recipients will ALWAYS receive this notification every time it is used, whether they are specified by the sending module or not.
Note: When entering multiple email addresses, use a semi-colon (NOT a comma) between each address. Blind cc emails are not permissible (i.e. all email addresses will be visible to all recipients)
Note: By default most modules that require “Email” as the notification type will automatically send emails to the recipients that are specified in those modules. Therefore recipients do not always have to be specified in the recipient’s grid.
Enter the Subject.
Enter the Email Body.

Fill out the CC Recipients, Sender Type, and Sender Email Address as needed.
