Call Configuration: Communication Settings
Updates in the system can trigger notifications, to Administrators, Reviewers, and Submitters. Per call, the administrator can configure how frequently these notifications should be delivered.
Submitter Communication
Submitters can be notified about the following events:
- Submission has been received.
- Submission Withdrawn.
- Their submission was rejected or accepted
Reviewer Notifications
Reviewers can be notified about the following events:
- They have been assigned reviewer for a call.
- A submission has been assigned to them (either automatically or manually).
According to both "Submitter and Reviewer Notifications" settings, they can either receive these notifications:
- Instant - Right after the event happened
- Off - No notifications should be delivered
Also, Administrators can enable/disable these notifications at a Call level or per submission/review phase basis when using multiple phases.
