Introduction
Notifications in AIV
Notifications are actions that convey specific pieces of information or methods by which notices are given to particular users.
Accessing Notifications
The Notifications subsection is located under the Request section of the AIV application. You can access it in two ways:
- Click on ‘Notifications’ to open it in the same window.
- Click on the new window icon next to the Notifications tab to open it in a new window.
Types of Notifications
1. Approvals
In this section, users can find all approval requests generated by other users. Approval requests may be generated through any scheduling activity. Request approval serves as the exit point for any type of scheduling request. A scheduling request will not be considered complete until the requested user provides approval. The requested user can view reports before approving them and can also add comments to the request.

2. Messages
All instant messages sent to the owner user will fall under the Message subsection. Instant Messages are a way to communicate with AIV users within this application. Users can view, reply, forward, and comment on received messages.

3. Alerts
The Alert section stores all scheduling event statuses, such as reports scheduled successfully, reports approved by users, and incoming approval requests. Users can track when approvals are provided and at what time they occurred.
