Every part of Bettr Manager's notifications — the event types you turn on and how they're worded, the recipient rules that route each one, and the feed where they land — plus the states, controls, and permissions behind them.

Notifications are how Bettr Manager tells the right person the moment something happens on the floor — a receipt sitting on a QC hold, an order out the door — instead of them finding out a shift too late. There are three parts to it: the event types you turn on, the rules that route each type to people, and the feed where the notices land. This page describes each field, column, and state across the three, and where every value comes from. Open Notification types to read along.
A pairs a single event — a purchase order approved, a receipt on a QC hold, a sales order shipped — with the words your team reads. Bettr ships the events; a type is the one you've turned on and worded for your company.
Each row on the list carries:
receiving_item_qc_pending),
the action URL the notice points at, and the date you created it.Above the list, Search filters by title or key, and Filter by status limits to Active or Inactive, or leaves it on All statuses. When the list runs past 20, a per-page control and pagination appear beneath it. With nothing to show, it reads "No notification types found." New opens a blank type.
The New and Edit screens hold the same fields under two headings.
Under Basic information:
Both Title and Text accept tokens in curly braces — {order_number},
{customer_name}, {sales_order_number} — that Bettr swaps for the record's real
value when the event fires. A title of QC hold on {order_number} lands as QC
hold on PO-000010.
Under Behavior:
Editing an existing type adds a Danger zone with Delete notification type.
Behind the Select button is every event Bettr can fire, grouped under two modules — Warehouse and Production Center — and within each, by the record the event is about, like Purchase Order, Receiving Item, or Sales Order. Each event carries an About note spelling out exactly what fires it, and a Search events box narrows the list. An event you've already turned on for the company reads Already configured instead of a Select button, so you never double one up.
A notification type on its own reaches no one. A draws the line between a type and the team that hears it. Open Notification recipients to manage them.
Each row carries:
The controls match the types list: Search by type or recipient, Filter by status, and pagination when the list runs long. New opens a blank rule.
Editing a rule adds a Danger zone with Delete recipient rule.
The three recipient types decide how far a notification travels and how well it holds up as your team changes:
More than one rule can point at the same type — the Quality role for the whole team, plus a couple of individuals who want a personal copy.
Open Notifications for the full feed, or reach for the bell in the top bar from any screen. Each company keeps its own inbox: switch companies in the top bar and the feed follows, so a notice for one plant never clutters another's.
Above the feed, Refresh pulls in anything that's arrived since you opened the page, and Mark all as read shows only while you have something unread. The feed pages in 20s, newest first. When there's nothing waiting, it reads "You're all caught up!"
Every notice on the feed shows the same parts:
A notification sits in one of three states, and Bettr keeps each step as history rather than overwriting it:
For working the feed and the bell day to day, see Stay on top of your notifications.
The three surfaces are one chain: a type fires an event, its recipient rules decide who's notified, and each of those people gets a notice on their feed. Because every change is kept as an event, editing one link never rewrites what's already been sent:
Notification types and recipients each carry a view permission and a manage permission. Someone with only view can read the lists; the New, Create, Save, and Delete controls appear only for people who hold the matching manage permission. The feed is personal — everyone sees their own notifications for the company they're in, no permission required.
