class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_are_notifications_necessary\"><\/span>Why are notifications necessary?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Even though an ERP system is a huge step forward in <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"inventory tracking (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/blog\/inventory-tracking\/\" target=\"_blank\">inventory tracking<\/a> and manufacturing management, without someone constantly checking the data in the software, things can sometimes be overlooked. For example, a new unforeseen task can be left unnoticed, low inventory levels can be left unattended, and the maintenance schedule of machinery disregarded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is where notifications come into play. Depending on the software and user settings, software notifications can alert the necessary parties of low inventory levels, due dates, changes in the data, etc. For example, when a portion of a raw material SKU is consumed so that its count drops below the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/blog\/what-is-reorder-point-and-reorder-point-formula\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"reorder point (opens in a new tab)\">reorder point<\/a>, a message is sent to the inventory manager and\/or any other person responsible for the replenishment of stock. This way, companies can minimize downtime caused by slow communication and become more efficient in the long run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But not all ERP\/MRP systems offer notifications. That means\nin order to minimize the chances of overlooking some critical aspects of your\nbusiness, you should make sure to choose one that supports them.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"banner-v2\">\n    <p class=\"banner-v2__desc\">Avoid stockouts and overstocking with MRPeasy<\/p>\n    <a class=\"banner-v2__link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/sign-up\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-ga-event=\"blog_signup_banner_blue\">Try for free<\/a>\n<\/div>\t\t<style>.banner-v2 {\n    float: right;\n    display: flex;\n    flex-direction: column;\n    justify-content: center;\n    align-items: center;\n    padding: 40px 32px;\n    gap: 16px;\n    width: 356px;\n    height: 205px;\n    background: linear-gradient(199.68deg, #6084E5 13.17%, #5FA7DD 82.1%);\n    border-radius: 4px;\n    margin-left: 12px;\n    margin-bottom: 12px;\n    margin-top: 15px;\n}\n\n@media (max-width: 767.98px) {\n    .banner-v2 {\n         width: 100%;\n         height: 173px;\n         margin-bottom: 0;\n         margin-left: 0;\n    }\n}\n\n.single__content p.banner-v2__desc {\n    margin: 0 !important;\n}\n\np.banner-v2__desc {\n    width: 292px;\n    font-style: normal;\n    font-weight: 700;\n    font-size: 22px;\n    line-height: 29px !important;\n    text-align: center;\n    color: #FFFFFF;\n    margin: 0 !important;\n    order: 0 !important;\n}\n\n.single__content a.banner-v2__link {\n    color: #FFFFFF !important;\n}\n\n.single__content a.banner-v2__link:hover {\n    color: #003557 !important;\n}\n\na.banner-v2__link {\n    display: flex;\n    justify-content: center;\n    align-items: center;\n    width: 181px;\n    height: 51px;\n    padding: 18px 0;\n    border-radius: 4px;\n    background: #003557;\n    font-weight: 700;\n    font-size: 16px;\n    color: #FFFFFF !important;\n    text-decoration: none !important;\n    order: 1 !important;\n}\n\n.banner-v2__link:hover {\n    background: white;\n    color: #003557 !important;\n}<\/style>\n\t\t\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Types_of_software_notifications\"><\/span>Types of software notifications<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are various ways different solution providers offer\nalerts and notifications. For one, software providers can utilize different\ntypes of delivery systems for getting the notifications to your screen, but the\nsubject of the alerts can obviously differ, as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Types_of_delivery_systems\"><\/span>Types of delivery systems<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The types of delivery systems used by ERP\/MRP providers can vary as much as those used by other apps or websites. From <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Push_technology\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"push notifications (opens in a new tab)\">push notifications<\/a> to text messages and e-mails, your provider has to find a way to deliver alerts efficiently, and without being too annoying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Push_notifications\"><\/span>Push notifications<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Push notifications are alerts sent to the user\u2019s computer or\nsmart device without the application itself being open, just like apps such as\nMessenger can instantly notify you when someone sends you a message.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Messenger_notifications\"><\/span>Messenger notifications<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Some software providers have opted for messenger notifications for conveying important messages to users. Software user accounts are tied to a messenger app account (such as Facebook Messenger, Whatsapp, etc.) so that alerts are sent via the third-party app. For some employees, however, using their personal messenger accounts for work might conflict with their need for privacy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Text_message_notifications\"><\/span>Text message notifications<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Text message notifications are sent directly to the phone number tied to the user account. This could be a little bit too intrusive because text messages cannot be turned off without turning off the device. That is why companies that work in shifts rarely want to use this type of notifications as they could disturb employees on their time off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"E-mail_notifications\"><\/span>E-mail notifications<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>E-mail notifications are messages sent to the e-mail address\ntied to the user account. These can be considered the least intrusive\nnotifications because they are most often tied with employees\u2019 work e-mail\naddresses, not their personal accounts. After work, incoming e-mail\nnotifications can be turned off from the e-mail account settings so that they\nwould not bother employees during their personal time. This is the method of\nnotification delivery used also by MRPeasy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/order-status-mrpeasy.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/order-status-mrpeasy-1024x555.png\" alt=\"order-status-mrpeasy\" class=\"wp-image-8994\" width=\"512\" height=\"278\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/order-status-mrpeasy-1024x555.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/order-status-mrpeasy-300x163.png 300w, https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/order-status-mrpeasy-768x417.png 768w, https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/order-status-mrpeasy.png 1132w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/a><figcaption><strong>MRPeasy uses e-mail messages to send notifications about low stock, new tasks, order status changes, etc.<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Types_of_notifications\"><\/span>Types of notifications<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Like everything else in a manufacturing business, notifications have to be optimally allocated.

If insufficient inventory levels are overlooked, especially when it comes to materials critical for production, the whole operation could come to a screeching halt. That is why low stock alerts are frequently a deciding factor when companies are choosing an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/enterprise-resource-planning\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"ERP\/MRP system (opens in a new tab)\">ERP\/MRP system<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/low-stock-alert-mrpeasy.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/low-stock-alert-mrpeasy.png\" alt=\"low-stock-alert-mrpeasy\" class=\"wp-image-8996\" width=\"406\" height=\"174\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/low-stock-alert-mrpeasy.png 812w, https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/low-stock-alert-mrpeasy-300x128.png 300w, https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/low-stock-alert-mrpeasy-768x328.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 406px) 100vw, 406px\" \/><\/a><figcaption><strong>In MRPeasy, Critical on-hand lists are sent by e-mail every hour.<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Approval_request_notifications\"><\/span>Approval request notifications<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>If your company relies on the Approval system functionality\nin your ERP to establish a checkpoint before an order can be processed further,\nthese notifications should come in very handy. When a new MO or PO is created,\na notification is instantly sent to the user in charge of approving documents.\nThis way, order approvals can be expedited, making the business again a little more\nefficient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Personal_schedule_notifications\"><\/span>Personal schedule notifications<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Alerts related to employees\u2019 personal schedules can be a\ngreat aid, as well. For example, a worker\u2019s weekly production schedule can be\nsent to them one hour before the start of the business week. Likewise, when a\nnew task is assigned to a worker, they would be made aware of it without delay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Order_status_notifications\"><\/span>Order status notifications<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Tracking changes to the statuses of customer orders,\nmanufacturing orders, or purchase orders is an essential part of keeping tabs\non the progress made in the business. With a number of different markers from\nquotation to delivery, new MO to MO finished, or from new PO to PO received, an\norder status notification system makes tracking the progress of orders\neffortless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Maintenance_notifications\"><\/span>Maintenance notifications<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>With an integrated <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mrpeasy.com\/blog\/maintenance-management\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"maintenance management (opens in a new tab)\">maintenance management<\/a> system in place, an ERP\/MRP system can keep count of when a machine or a workstation needs to be serviced.
