Frequently Asked Questions

Does Flowmingo have workflow and task notifications? How do I setup them up?
Yes, Flowmingo has workflow and task notifications. Each user sets up their notification preferences on their user profile page.
Notification events include:
- When a task the user is assigned changes status.
- The user is assigned or unassigned a task
- A user's task is overdue
- A comment is made to a workflow or task the user is assigned
- A user is mentioned in a comment
-
Why am I not receiving notifications?
We take the approach that the user initiating an event does not need to be notified
For example. If you have Task A and Task B, each task has Bob and Ginger assigned to them. If Bob completes Task A causing Task B to go into process ONLY Ginger will get a notification Task B has been put into process.
