How to Post Public and Private News

The News tool can be accessed via the Dashboard and throughout the site where parcels, news, and other items are available. To start, you will need to find the item you wish to post News about. To the right of the item, find and click on the three dots which will give you a dropdown menu. From the dropdown, find and click on the Flag icon to begin posting News. 

Clicking on the News icon will open a new pop up window where you have the ability to choose from posting Public News or Private News.  

Clicking on either of these options will reveal a new dialog box where you can change what type of News this is, add comments in the message box, add a related website URL, and the option of adding attachments such as pictures, documents, or PDFs. You also have the option of tagging colleagues and sending this News item to them via Email.

Example: Suppose you want to privately share some documents with colleagues. This will allow you to privately share important information directly to the Users you tag.
