Setting up Alerts

Alerts are messages sent to you outside of PowerDetails. They are automatically sent to you when certain activities in the site take place, such as an employee requesting to cancel out of a job, or if an employer user has submitted a job request.

If you would like to receive text messages from PowerDetails, make sure to enter them in the following format:

Section	Text Message Format
Type	PowerDetails uses an “email-to-text” service, so Email must be selected here.
Name	Enter a name for the particular address like “My work cell”
Contact	Each mobile phone has an email-to-text format based on the mobile carrier. To find the email address format for your phone, go to Help > Text Alert Formats.
Primary	If you need to reset your password, a temporary one will be sent to this selected address.
Private	Check this box if you would like to only receive alerts sent by your administrators.
Alert	Only addresses with the Alert box checked will receive external alerts.
From/To Time	If you only want to receive external alerts during certain time frames, enter them here. Alerts sent outside this time frame will be available in PowerDetails instead.

Sending Messages

To message any user in the system, go to Messages > New Message, or click Compose New from your message inbox. The Message icon will also appear on job pages and within personnel profiles.

To insert recipients, begin typing in all or part of the user/group name, and it will pop up in the recipient field for you to select. Alternatively, you can click the To link or the drop down arrow to scroll through a list.

Click on your desired recipient. You can add as many as needed.

Note: Click the x next to any name to remove that recipient, or simply backspace over it.

Fill in a subject and a message. Messages will always be sent to the internal PowerDetails inbox and to any external alerts the user has configured if the Send Alert checkbox is selected.
