Startup Notifications

After logging in to Theatre Manager, the Notification window may appear. This window contains important details that should be reviewed before proceeding with the program.

• Some Notifications pertain to the Facility Management module.
• Some are alarms that have been set for tasks for yourself to remind you to do something.
• Others are System Notifications and should be addressed as soon as possible.

The window cannot be closed without reviewing each of the System Notifications (indicated by a red dot). When highlighted the Notification details will appear at the bottom of the window along with an Explain button. This button will open a web page indicating how to resolve the issue.

Examples of these would be:

• Backup Warnings - Should the size of the backup shrink or the backup script has not run, Theatre Manager will list the warning in this window. This can lead to loss of data. The backup process should be reviewed before moving forward.
• Theatre Manager Application Updates - Theatre Manager provides a notification each time an updated version has been installed.

  Clicking the "Explain" button will take you to the Release Version History allowing a review of the new features added into the application.

• SMTP Email Errors - Emails may not be sending. This will prevent patrons from resetting their passwords to gain access to web sales or from receiving confirmations of their online purchases.
• Shared Email Addresses - A patron's email address is used to log in to the online sales. An email address can be shared among multiple patrons within the same household. Should the email address belong to multiple people not within the same household, a notification will appear.
