Managing Your Notifications
Staying on top of your tasks, filings, and compliance deadlines starts with having the right notification settings in place.
Step 1: Access Your Settings
Click the gear icon (⚙️) on the top right corner > Select Preferences
👉 This is where all of your notification controls live.

Step 2: Explore Your Notification Settings
Once inside Preferences > Navigate to Notification Settings
-
Here, you'll see different types of notifications for each module:

You can enable alerts for:
-
When you are added to a task or a legal request
-
When a task is completed
-
New comments
-
Task status updates
-
Upcoming due dates
👉 For each, you can toggle:
-
Email notifications
-
In-app notifications
⚠️ Important: Notifications Are User-Based
Notifications are only sent to users who have them enabled. So if it is turned off, you will not receive alerts, even if something important is happening.
Best Practice Setup (Recommended):
To make sure nothing is missed:
-
Turn ON Email notifications
-
Turn ON In-app notifications
-
Keep notifications enabled for: Task Updates, Due Dates and Comments
📩 Annual Reports & Compliance Notifications
For workflows like Annual Reports, notifications are critical.
👉 These alerts are what trigger the process.
If notifications are not enabled:
-
You may not receive filing reminders
-
Your team may miss important deadlines

⚠️ Important Reminder (Compliance):
As explained in the Annual Reports guide, Traact initiates filings 20 days before the deadline, and if no updated information is submitted, filings will proceed using the previous data. This makes notifications essential to ensure accuracy.
Pro Tips:
-
Add a shared inbox (e.g., legal@ or compliance@)
-
Double-check your email is correct
