The inbox contains news about the platform. On the cloud version, Smartsign is the sender, and in the on-premises version it is the system owner who has the possibility to send items into this feed. 104300885

Screen status ​

In the dashboard we will show statuses for screens. You can see the number online, offline, screens that recently went offline and screens who are lacking a license. This feature can be toggled individually by enabling either permission under Screens in User profiles. Additionally this feature has a link to register new screens and this link is only visible if the user has the permission to register new screens, which can also be toggled under permissions; Screens / Edit.
