Sending Messages
You have the ability to send direct messages to an employee or anyone in the company through the application. To do this, on the upper right corner of the screen, select the small message icon (shaped like a bell):
This will open a message panel on the right side of the screen, which will show you all of your existing message contacts:
There are several ways of sending a message.
- You can send a message to the entire company or to all managers by using one of the icons on the screen
- You can send a message to any people who you have messaged before. Selecting on any of these will bring up the full message history with this person.
- You may send a message to a new person by selecting the "plus" icon ("+") on the upper right. Here you will see a list of existing employees in the company. Either scroll to find the person you wish to message, or you can search for them.
You can send messages by entering text into the small bar on the bottom and selecting Send. You also have the option of attaching images by selecting on the small image icon on the lower left.
The person whom you contacted will now see a red number indicator next to the messages icon on the upper right of the screen, letting them know there is an outstanding message.
By selecting this icon, they can view and reply to messages.
