Hi, Those steps do not relate to the communication channel - only to recipients. What we would like to control is how each specified program notification is sent to the recipients: in some cases you want internal messaging + email + SMS (and in the future Whatsapp, Skype...) - in other cases you want to use only one or two of these channels.
As an example, if I'm using a program notification as an alert to managers that a dangerous disease have been reported and they should view the report (in DHIS) asap - then it might not be relevant to also send that via internal messaging because that means a user is already in the system and the same disease notification is already clearly visible in dashboards etc. We need fine-grained control over - when to trigger notifications (e.g. when a specific data element value like a disease is reported) - whether they might be repeated, and if yes how often or how many times (nobody wants endless repeating alerts) - what channels/methods that are used to send them (availability, cost, not too much duplication) - who the recipients are Regards Calle On 3 February 2017 at 12:15, Cecilia @dhis2 <ceci...@dhis2.org> wrote: > Hi Calle, > Great, thanks!
