Copying Event-Driven Notifications

You cannot create a whole new Event-Driven Notification from scratch, but you can copy an existing default notification and use it as the basis for setting up a new one. The status and the recipients, however, are not copied; you must make those selections.

Note: Only notifications with a non-automated recipient list can have an alternate distribution list than the original notification that is being copied. All other notification types are automated to be delivered to the appropriate individual(s) per management level and access rights.

The IT Department needs to be reminded what to include in a standard desktop load for new employees. Add the department to the list of recipients who are already set up to receive notice of any new hires and include a note specifically for the technicians listing all software to load.
