This article will walk you through what Notices are, how to create them, and some handy tips for managing them efficiently.
What are Notices?
Notices are a tool within SiteMax Systems that allow you to communicate important information of a project. Whether it's a shift in schedule, a safety alert, a form that needs attention, or a quality concern, Notices serve as a means to disseminate these updates effectively.

Navigate to Company Settings: Find the Modules section and click on the Notices tab.
Click on the "+ Create Notice" icon: This initiates the process of adding a new project notice.
Select Type of Notice: Choose from options like Information, Site Bulletin, and Safety Bulletin to categorize your notice.
