Also available on  android-gray-icon.jpg  web-gray-icon.jpg

Objective

To notify users of defect items that are assigned to them from your iOS mobile device.

Things to Consider

  • Required User Permissions: 
    • 'Admin' level permissions on the project's Defect List tool.
      Note: 'Read Only' users cannot be assigned a defect list item.
    • 'Standard' permissions on the project's Defect List tool for users who are listed as Default Defect Item Managers in the Defect List configuration settings, see Configure Advance Settings: Defect List. 
  • Additional Information:
    • The defect list item must already be created and saved before you can email it.
    • Defect items must have an assignee in order to send the notification.
    • You can automatically send notifications to additional users when 'Item Sent to Assignees (Work Required)' is configured in Advanced Settings. See Configure Advance Settings: Defect List
    • You can send defect list items in bulk using the Review function or you can email defect items individually.
    • Once an initial email notification has been sent, selected Assignees will receive daily notifications of overdue items via email; email notifications will end after 45 days.
