    Article summary

    Global Search

    With Global Search you can search for any application page, dashboard, template or report and go directly to that page. This allows you to find specific pages in the application without having to click through the navigation path.

    Notifications

    Click to view notifications, which are system-generated messages about processes, scenarios, and reports you are running in the application. Planful automatically deletes the history of notifications that are older than 30 days.

    Notification Settings:


    Email Notifications 

    Select the appropriate checkboxes to receive the appropriate notifications via email whenever the status updates/changes.

    Budget status 

    During the Workflow process, the status of budgets constantly changes. Select whether you want to receive an email regarding the status change of budgets by selecting the appropriate checkboxes.
    • Approved - Receive an email when forwarded budgets are approved. 
    • Final Approved - Receive an email when budgets receive final approval. 
    • Forward - Receive an email for all budgets that are forwarded. Budgets get forwarded for approval purposes. Budgets that have been forwarded are locked and cannot be edited. 
    • Recall - Receive an email when reverse actions are performed on a forwarded template/entity. 
    • Send Back - Receive an email when forwarded budgets are sent back for changes or updates.

    Dynamic Commentary

    • All Actions- Select this check box to enable email notifications for all actions available in Dynamic Commentary. By default, this check box is selected.
    • Assigned Task - Select this check box if you want to receive email notification only when someone assigned you any task.
    • Marked Task As Complete- Select this check box if you want to receive an email notification when the assignee of the task changes the status to Complete.
    Note
    You will not receive an email notification for Mark as Completed action when the task is completed from the Task Manager page. The email is sent to you if the status of the task is updated from the Comments window
    • Mentioned on Comment- Select this check box if you want to receive email notification only when someone mentioned you in any comment.
    • Replied to My Comment - Select this check box if you want to receive email notification only when someone replies to your comment.

        • The comment is resolved from the comments window or from the Comments Manager page.

    MyPlan Status

    Submit- Receive an email once a MyPlan has been submitted.

    Predict 

    Predict Processes- Select this check box to enable application notifications for all actions related to Predict functions (for example, enabling Signals and Projections, training models, resolving signals, and excluding GL combinations). 

    Task Manager

    All Actions - This check box helps enable email notifications for all actions related to a task in the Task Manager (for example, creation, updation, completion, and deletion of a task). This feature is enabled by default. In case you wish to disable this feature, you can deselect the All Actions checkbox.

    In-App Notifications

    Select the appropriate checkboxes to receive the notifications via In-App notifications whenever the status updates/changes.
    • All actions for Task Manager - Select this check box to enable application notifications for all actions related to a task in the Task Manager (for example, creation, updation, completion, and deletion of a task).

    Bookmark

    Create bookmarks for specific templates, reports, dashboards, and application pages that you frequently access within the application. Bookmarks allow you to access specific application pages with one click.

    To create a new bookmark: 

    1. Navigate to the template you want to bookmark. Click the Bookmark icon.

    2. Select Bookmark this page.

    3. Enter details for the bookmark (title, description). A name and description are populated by default. You may keep the auto-populated name and description or modify it.

    4. Click Save.

    Note:
    If a Dynamic Report is deleted, the bookmark is not removed. The bookmark must be explicitly deleted from the Dynamic Report.

    When you are on a page that is bookmarked, you can edit or remove the bookmark. Bookmarks are user-specific and are not public.

    Click Bookmark Manager to edit the location of your bookmarks within the folder structure, as well as manage the folders themselves.
