Send automatic e-mail regarding resource assignments

An automatic notification feature sends e-mail to the affected resources when you add, change, or remove a resource assignment. This feature is turned on by default. If you do not want to use this feature, you can turn it off or, you can leave it on and request a prompt before each e-mail is sent.

The e-mail address and subject line are generated based on the specific assignment circumstances. For example, when you newly assign a resource to an activity, the e-mail subject line tells the resource they have been assigned and provides the activity name. In all cases, the message text includes the project name, resource start and finish dates, planned units, and planned units/time.
