Notification Configuration

Overview

The notification system in timveroOS enables automated communication across multiple channels to keep stakeholders informed throughout the lending process. The system supports customizable templates, event-based triggers, and multi-channel delivery to ensure timely and relevant communications.

Business Context

Efficient notification management ensures:

  • Timely status updates for applicants

  • Task alerts for internal teams
