Overview
The Workflow Messenger module allows you to associate events with messages, so that when that event occurs the designated users are notified.
This could be telling a user when they are enrolled in a course, telling them 30 days before an activity is due to be completed, telling their manager when they complete a course or telling a group when a new member joins.
Connected to this page are the Notifications Settings page, and a list of all the Components and Event types.
