Introduction<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Notification Center allows grantors to receive notifications for all new grant and application
messages in one location. Grantors receive notifications for all grants and applications they are
assigned to as primary, and email notifications are received when messages are sent. Messages
received in the notification center direct users to grant or application messages within both
GrantSolutions Grants Management Services (GMM) classic and new enhanced screens.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When grantors generate a bulk export they receive a notification and can download the CSV file in the
Notification Center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Note: <\/strong>Notifications (alerts and email notifications) do not apply to MGM grant messages. The recipient
and grantor users should not receive email notifications or alerts in the notification center.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Note:<\/strong> Please refer to the \u201cBulk Messages for Grantors\u201d Quick Sheet to learn more about bulk
messages<\/p>\n\n\n\n
