Create subscriptions

The Subscription Rules dialog box lets you see a list of existing e-mail subscriptions, create new subscriptions, and modify existing ones.

Note: You can create subscriptions, but they cannot be initiated from within a schedule template.

Procedure

1. Select a task, multiple tasks, or schedule.
2. Choose Edit → Subscription Rules. Teamcenter displays the Subscription Rules dialog box.
3. Click New in the Subscription Rules dialog box.
4. Select one of the rules from the list and click Next. (You can view the list of subscription rules for schedules and tasks below.)
5. Enter a subject and the message text or use the placeholders provided.

Note: These placeholders are replaced when the message is sent (they are not translated):

• {ScheduleName} is filled with the schedule name.
• {TaskName} is filled with the task name.
• {OldValue} is used on the change notification. For example, if the notification is when a date changes, the {OldValue} is the date prior to the change.
• {NewValue} is used on the change notification. For example, if the notification is when a date changes, the {NewValue} is the date it was just changed to.

6. Click Finish.

Note: The symbol for a task that has a notification and one that has a subscription is the same, and the only way to tell whether it is a notification or subscription is to display the Notification Rules and Subscription Rules dialog boxes.
