Getting started
The automated email notification system for Palmtech Complete makes communication easier by sending quick updates to everyone involved. This system helps inspections run smoothly by ensuring that reminders, updates, and results are delivered on time, so no important information is missed. It reduces mistakes, helps inspectors, clients, and real estate agents work better together, and keeps everyone informed. This leads to a more reliable and stress-free inspection process for everyone.
In the following article we'll go over each subsection of the notifications system and how it works.
Note: This article discusses concepts such as the Status of an inspection. To learn more about inspections and their status visit the following guide: Portal Inspections > Inspection Status
