The Activity Notifications Tab enables users to specify who receives the QuoteValet Notifications for key QuoteValet events. Events include when a quote has been accepted, when payment has been made, when a QuoteValet Mobile quote has been created, when a OrderForm order has been placed, the document first view notification, when a document is approved/not approved, and when a Peer Review comment has been posted. Users can add additional users/email addresses to receive a CC or BCC of the notification. This is especially useful for keeping the accounting department in the loop when payments are received and for keeping sales managers in the loop when quotes are accepted.
To set up the notifications for other users first choose your activity. You can choose from Quote Acceptance, Payment Received, Mobile Quote Created, OrderForm Order Placed, First View, Approval Approved, Approval Not Approved, and Peer Review Posted.
Next, select the rep or group who will be creating the documents. For example if you want notifications to be sent out to other email addresses for Inside Sales Reps quotes, then you would select the Inside Sales group here. If you want the Administrators notifications to be sent to another email address, then you would select the administrator here.
The final step includes choosing where you would like the notifications to go. There are two options a CC list and a BCC list. For both you can select a group or single user in QuoteWerks from the drop-down box.
Users can also type in the email address in the “Select user/group” drop-down box. Once you have typed in the email address, simply click on the 
icon to add them to the list. Once the user is added to the list, that email address has been saved. To remove any users, highlight the user and click on the 
icon.
The Reminder Options button is where users can set the default Auto-reminder settings for the installation. The Auto-reminders are automatically generated emails send to the client and the SalesRep to remind them to view the document, let them know it is expiring, and also that an accepted quote still has a balance. The selections made will apply to all users who utilize QuoteValet. Users have the option to manually adjust the reminder settings on each document uploaded to QuoteValet. If no selections are changed, then the default selections will be used.
