Comments and notifications

For everyone: writing a comment on a document, mentioning a colleague, and finding what needs your attention on the Notifications page.

A document’s Comments tab lists the remarks colleagues made. People who hold the permission Comments can comment on the documents they read, in every state, an archived document included.

To write one, type in Your comment and press Send. The button stays grey while the box is empty.

Type @ and the first letters of a name. A list of people opens: choose one and the name is put in the text. The person you mention gets a notification and can open the document if they may read it.
