Profile - User Notifications PROJECT

Modified on Wed, 17 Sep at 12:47 PM

Depending on your role and permissions, you can adjust your own — and in some cases, your team’s — project notification settings. This allows you to control the volume and type of notifications received via:

  • Rave Notifications (Alerts)

  • External Email Notifications (sent to your email inbox)


Key Notes:

  • All users can update their own notifications, based on the permissions they’ve been granted.

  • If a user cannot see a specific notification switch, it means they do not have access to manage that particular setting.

    • In these cases, a Branch Owner or another internal team member with the appropriate permissions can make the necessary updates.

    • Those with permission to edit other users notifications will see a user box to the top right of their screen where they can pick a user and then select which notifications they would like to alter. 



  • If a category only displays one option, it’s because that specific notification does not offer both email and internal (in-app) notification types.
  • If your available options differ from what’s shown in our support article, it means you do not have access to that particular setting.
  •  Access to specific notification controls is based on your role and permissions within Rave and the order these appear will also depend on your modules/permissions.

Note: All File and Album notifications will only work if the PROJECT setting has been switched on first.

Note: You (or your team member) must be on the people tab of a project to receive these notifications 

Note: The Purchase Order Options are only for FMS users and is a default setting so you don't have to CC PMs in these emails when creating or cancellation the PO's.  

To read how to ensure this is working correctly check out the Branch Settings Notification Control here 



Note: For Contractors, if you have the Project notes setting turned off in Branch settings but the contractor has their notification turned on, they will NOT get notified as your setting overrides their setting.

Project Notification Preference Override 

You can override a users notifications per project using the icon beside the Files notification that looks like a house.

Example: If a certain user has access to 10 projects in Rave and all of those projects have their Project Level notifications turned on and the user themselves has their User Notifications turned on they can choose to opt out of any projects they DONT want notifications for.
