There are three ways to receive notifications from the calendar. This includes an internal notification, "Q-Log" notification, and an email notification.
If you are logged into BestNotes, you will receive a notification in the top center of your screen at the appointment time (see Figure 1-1).

You can set up additional notifications (Q-log/Email) when logged into BestNotes:
- Navigate to "Settings."
- Select "My Account."
- Set your preferences to allow "Q-Log" and/or "Email" notifications.
If you select "Q-Log" you will receive a notification in your "Q-Log" tab (see Figure 1-2). If you select "Email" you will receive an email notification (see Figure 1-3).

When creating a "Q-Log" message, you have the option to initiate an "Email" notification to the participants listed (see Figure 1-4). This will send an email to the email address on file for the participants. This email message only lets the participant know that they have a new "Q-Log" message, and they must log in to BestNotes to view the content of the message.

Selecting tags in the "Tag Notifications" section of the "User Details" screen will send a notification of that tag being added or removed from a contact to the "For Review" tab of the dashboard for that user (see Figure 1-5 and 1-6). If the user selects "Email Tag Notifications", then they will also receive an email notification of the tag update (see Figure 1-7 and 1-8).

In addition to "Tag Notifications", you will also receive notifications in your "For Review" tab when you have locked documents that require your signature (see Figure 1-9). For more information visit For Review.

Appointment reminders
For an additional cost of 5¢ per message, your patients can be opted in to receive text-message reminders of appointments. For more information visit Appointment Reminders.
When using the portal, your patients will receive email notifications regarding their portal. The patient will receive a verification email for their submitted a application (see Figure 1-10), and a request to review and sign the document that you portalized (see Figure 1-11).

When you set up your portal, an admissions personnel is assigned to receive notifications. This personnel will receive an email to alert them to a new admission via the portal (see Figure 1-12).

Within the client's "Files" tab, there is the ability to email that file (see Figure 1-14).
