Introduction to Notices

The Manage Notices module in Elentra allows authorized users to post notices to the Elentra ME Message Centre on the user dashboard, and to optionally send the same notice as an email. A notice can also be set to display publicly on the Elentra login page. It is recommended that only general information and nothing sensitive or personal be communicated through these channels.  Manage Notices is different than Announcements, which are messages posted in Communities.
