BinSentry Notifications

Receive emails when bins need your attention.

Knowing that your bins will not run empty and are filled with fresh feed is imperative to animal health and overall profitability. Getting notified if a Bin is going empty can be a very important notification to receive.

To set up your Notifications, use the Bell Icon on the top right of the dashboard then click on Settings to update your Notification Settings. 
  

Your BinSentry Account allows you to receive personal email notifications for all bins within your Account.

These notifications will be for your own personal email, not for everyone in the account. This means different users can have different notifications set up based on your preferences.

Any role type in BinSentry can take advantage of notifications.

Heading to the Notifications (bell icon) will also display your active alerts. On the settings tab you can choose to receive up to 13 different types of notifications:

---

Order Notifications

1. New Order:  this will notify the producer for Orders scheduled in BinSentry, and will notify mill administrator users when the Producer has requested an Order.

2. Late Order: this will notify of any late orders. 

3. Producer Request: this will notify of any requests for orders.

Barn Consumption Notifications

4. Empty Bin Out-Of-Feed Events: this will notify of any empty bin outages so that an order can be quickly placed.

12.  Bin Consumption: this will notify you when the bin is forecasted to be empty in less than a certain number of days.
