# Notifications about system events

When editing user data, you can specify which events in the system should result in a notification email to this user. They are mainly relevant for Workbench and Manager users, but can also be applied to client contacts.

[Please note that certain other events always result in email notifications.](https://docs.plint.com/books/plint-end-user-documentation/page/system-emails)

#### Job deadlines

This is the only setting which can be specified for any user, by themselves. The same option is available under the *Account menu / Profile & settings*.

To set the other notifications, you need access to the Advanced edit form for People. Such as:

#### Completed jobs

Selecting one or more job types that represent significant steps in a project, for any language or all, can be valuable for a project manager and help them keep tabs of a project without being inundated with notifications for each event. You can also limit the projects for which the user is notified.

#### New orders / projects

Be the first to know when a new order arrives, either by a Client user representing a company or by a project manager creating a new project. For a client contact tasked with keeping track of all activity for their company, the same setting but with the "Linked company" option can notify them when a colleague places an order.
