Notifications

Notifications is where you see important messages sent to your Putaway WMS account.

Open notifications from the bell in the application bar or from the Notifications page. The bell shows the number of unread messages and the latest loaded messages. The Notifications page shows the most recent messages for the current user.

Notifications are for quick work. They do not replace the full operational history. For detailed checks, use the page for the related activity: receiving, putaway, stock, orders, imports, tickets, or reports.

When Putaway WMS sends a new message to the signed-in user, the bell updates and a short notification sound may play.

If the live connection is interrupted, the bell may show OFFLINE or OFFLINE - Reconnecting…. In that case, messages reload when you open the bell, open the Notifications page, or when the application reconnects.

The bell shows the latest 5 messages from the loaded list. The Notifications page loads the most recent 20 messages. Messages are ordered from newest to oldest.

The list shows:

  • notification title;
  • message type: information, warning, error, or success;
  • received date and time, displayed in the browser’s local format;
  • read or unread state;
  • full message after opening;
  • ticket link, when the message is about a ticket.

An unread notification is highlighted in the list. When you open it, Putaway WMS marks it as read and saves the read time.

From the Notifications page you can:

  • open a notification to see the full message;
  • mark one notification as read;
  • mark one read notification as unread;
  • delete one notification;
  • select all displayed notifications;
  • mark the selection as read or unread;
  • delete the selection;
  • mark all unread notifications as read.

If the same notification was changed or deleted from another window, the action may be refused. Reload the list and try again.

In Account -> Preferences you control the notifications that have visible switches for your user. If you do not see an option, your account usually does not have permission for that activity.

For in-app notifications, these options can appear:

OptionWhen it is useful
Receiving zone closed for GRNWhen you need to know that a receiving zone was closed after receiving was finished.
Receiving zone reopened because of differencesWhen you need to recount or check a receiving flow where quantities do not match the document.
Receiving zone ready for putawayWhen the GRN was generated and goods can move forward to putaway.
Products with stock below minimumWhen a product drops below the configured minimum stock.

For email, there is a Daily notifications for products with stock below minimum option. Emails are not read on the Notifications page; this page shows in-app messages.

When a new client or user is created, in-app notifications for receiving and minimum stock are enabled by default. The daily minimum-stock email is disabled by default.

Putaway WMS can send receiving messages in these situations:

SituationWhat it means for the user
Receiving zone was closedReceiving was finished for that zone, and the zone can no longer be used for normal additions or corrections until the next step.
Receiving zone was reopened because of differencesDocument quantities do not match the scanned goods. The zone must be checked again.
Receiving zone is ready for putawayThe GRN was generated, the zone was released for putaway, and the message can include the GRN number.

Receiving notifications are sent only to users who are allowed to work with that operation and that warehouse. The person who performed the action usually does not receive their own confirmation message, because they see the result directly on screen.

The Stock below minimum notification appears when a product with a configured minimum threshold drops below that threshold.

In the verified flow, this notification is triggered after an adjustment decreases available stock. Putaway WMS checks the product, the available-to-sell stock, and the minimum threshold set on the product. If the available stock is still equal to or above the minimum, no notification is sent.

The message includes the product, SKU, available stock, and minimum threshold.

Ticket notifications appear for people involved in the ticket:

SituationWho can receive the message
New ticket replyPeople following the ticket, except the person who wrote the reply.
Ticket claimedPeople following the ticket, except the person who claimed it.
Ticket assignedThe user the ticket was assigned to, if another person assigned it.
User removed from ticketThe removed user, if another person removed them.
Status changedPeople following the ticket, except the person who changed the status.

When the notification is about a ticket, the message can include a direct ticket link.

Some messages are sent directly to the person who started the operation, so they know how it ended:

OperationPossible messages
Product importImport completed, import completed with issues, or import failed. The message includes the file name and number of processed rows.
MerchantPro - catalogCatalog import completed or failed, import to Putaway WMS completed or failed, import/apply results for categories, brands, units, attributes, and attribute values, stock export completed.
Gomag - catalogCatalog import completed or failed, import to Putaway WMS completed or failed, import/apply results for categories, brands, units, attributes, and attribute values, stock export completed.

These messages help the user know whether they must review the result, correct data, or restart an operation.

Putaway WMS can send warnings when an order needs manual review:

SituationWhat to check
MerchantPro order without enough stockThe order could not be sent to any warehouse because there is not enough available stock for all products.
MerchantPro integration deactivatedThe active MerchantPro subscription expired, and the store integration must be reactivated after it is resolved.
MerchantPro update blockedThe order has already reached a stage where some changes can no longer be applied automatically.
MerchantPro invoice could not be generatedThe invoice must be checked manually.
MerchantPro delivered order without imported invoiceInvoicing must be checked manually.
MerchantPro cancellation requires manual processingThe order was canceled in MerchantPro, but in Putaway WMS it is already in an advanced step and must be handled manually.
MerchantPro cancellation blocked for shipped orderThe order can no longer be canceled automatically because it was already shipped.
Canceled order requires manual return to stockThe order was canceled after it had reached packing or awaiting shipment, and the products must be handled manually.

These warnings go to users responsible for orders or integrations, depending on their access rights.

When you start customer or order data anonymization, you can receive a message when it finishes.

The message shows that the operation ended and how many orders or customer records were affected. Use it as a signal to check the result in orders or customers, if needed.

Notifications are not a full warehouse log and do not replace reports.

Not every message has its own switch in Account -> Preferences. Some important results are sent directly to the person who started the action or to the responsible person.

The Notifications page is not an audit page, does not have advanced filters, and does not show all operational details. For investigations, use the page where the event happened.
