The Announcements section in your XFRACAS Portal may contain two types of announcements:
Public announcements are visible to all users in specified entit(ies).
Private announcements are visible only to you.
All XFRACAS users can create and manage their own private announcements. Only users with specific permissions are able to create and modify public announcements.
Depending on the Portal Preferences, your portal may show some or all of your announcements, either from the entity that is currently selected or from all entities that you have access to.
Announcements may be configured to display only within a specified date range. If today's date does not fall within the specified range, the announcement will not show in your portal, but you can continue to access "expired" announcements via the Update Announcement and Announcement History pages.
To manage your announcements, click Edit Announcements in your portal.
To create a new announcement, select the blank option in the Select Announcement to Edit list then enter at least the required fields and click Home > Announcement > Save.
To edit an existing announcement, select it from the list then make the desired changes and click Home > Announcement > Update.
To stop displaying an announcement, select it from the list, specify a date in the Stop Displaying After field (< today's date) and click Home > Announcement > Update.
Tip: For users with the "Portal - Modify Public Links and Announcements" permission, you can permanently delete an announcement by selecting it from the list and clicking Home > Announcement > Delete.
Title and Description - text that is visible in the portal.
Display Order - the sequence among all public and private announcements in your portal.
Start Displaying At and Stop Displaying After - a date range when the announcement will be visible in your portal. If not specified, it will be visible immediately and will remain visible unless it is manually deleted.
Display to Public - if selected, the announcement will be visible to all users in the specified entit(ies). Only users with the "Portal - Create Public Links and Announcements" permission can create public announcements.
Owner - the user who created the announcement. Only users with the "Portal - Modify Public Links and Announcements" permission can edit a public announcement that was created by another user.
Entities - the entit(ies) where the announcement will be visible.
To view a list of all your announcements, including those that have "expired," click Announcements History in your portal.
In the Announcement History page:
If the image in the first column is a solid square, clicking it opens the page where you can view or edit the properties. If the image is an outline, you do not have permission to edit the properties.
To sort by any of the columns, click the column header.
