Notifications

The HRMS notifies you of important events through two channels: in-app notifications and email notifications.

In-App Notifications

Bell Icon

A bell icon (🔔) appears in the top-right area of the navigation bar. It shows:

• A red badge with the count of unread notifications
• If zero, no badge is shown

Viewing Notifications

1. Click the bell icon.
2. A dropdown shows your recent notifications.
3. Click a notification to navigate to the related page.

Marking as Read

• Single: Click a notification to mark it as read and navigate to the item.
• All: Click Mark All as Read at the bottom of the notification dropdown.

Email Notifications

The system automatically sends email notifications for key events. These go to the recipient's registered email address.

Who can manage this: Admin and HR

2. Toggle notifications on/off for each event type.

Developer Setup

Email notifications require a configured mail server. In development, smtp4dev can be used to capture emails locally without sending them externally.
