Overview
The Announcement Center is where you create, manage, and track announcements across your organisation — for example a holiday notice, a new price list, or a policy change. Click Announcement in the sidebar.
Finding an Announcement
Use the tabs to filter: All, Active (live now), and Scheduled (set to go live later). Type in Search announcements to find one.
The Announcement Card
| Part | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Type | At the top left, for example General |
| Status | At the top right, for example Scheduled |
| Title and message | The announcement itself. No further details means there is no message text |
| Location / Department | Who it is for |
| Employee | The employee it is addressed to |
| Go-live time | For a scheduled announcement, when it goes live — for example Goes live 07/10/2026 03:00 PM |
| Footer | Who created it and when, with View, Edit, and Delete |
