Introduction
Notification Preferences is a setting that allows you to choose whether you want to receive specific notifications and where you want to see them. It is a part of your CRM that you set up under My Preferences settings, but only specific to notifications.
Let us consider a scenario and understand better.
Ari Gale is Mark Hale’s manager. She mentions Mark in a Quote, saying, “@mhale, please send this quote for review.” Mark Hale receives this notification on his Actions page because he chooses to receive mention notifications there.
You can similarly choose your preferences.
