Keeping employees informed with critical updates and information is made easy with a feature called Required Messages. This feature allows administrators to force a message to display, right when members log in. Let's explore how it works, as well as the recent enhancement.
Create a Required Message
Required Messages can be accessed by hovering over the home tab, and selecting Required Messages. Next, click Create Message.
What a Required Message Looks Like
When a member logs in, the message will appear before seeing anything else in the system. They must read and verify the message by checking the accompanying checkbox.Clicking on any other navigation in the system will always bring them back to the required message.
View Past Messages
Administrators can view all past required messages they have posted, as well as the date the message was read by each member. A recent enhancement now allows members to also view past messages.
To view a list of past messages, hover over the Home tab and click Required Messages. Expand the full contents of the message by clicking on the + icon.
