Navigating Through Your Messaging Inbox

Navigating Through Your Messaging Inbox

Admation comes with an in-built messaging platform as standard, to keep track of your project's messages. Whilst you can send project-specific messages from a project, this guide discusses the messages tab at the top of your screen, which encapsulates messages from all projects across admation. 

To start, click the Messages icon at the top of your screen. A number next to this icon suggests that you have an unread message.

 By default, your messages are sorted by date, however you can change this by clicking the Sort By button at the top of your screen. 

Clicking the triangle icon flips your sort order into an ascending  or descending  order. You can also toggle between the different pages of your inbox.

Or you may want to use the Filters to refine your search for specific messages.

If you're waiting to receive a message from someone and you can't see it on your screen yet, you can also click Check Messages to refresh and reload your messages screen.

A blue circle  represents an unread message. Click a message to read its contents. 

You can use the menu at the top of each message to:

• Send a reply
• Send a reply to everyone CC'ed in the message
• Forward the message
• Mark the message as unread 
• Archive the message
• Move the message to a custom folder

Each message may also have a call to action, or reference link. This link is different depending on the type of message that's sent to you. The call to action may: 

• Link to a message
• Link to a specific task 
• Link to an approval 
• Allow you to preview certain documents  

Admation automatically links these links to a message that's sent to you. These can be great for easy access to items related to your message. Keep reading for instructions on how to create a new message.
