Messages
Messages is a repository for communication within Panviva. The Messages feature is accessed via the More > Messages menu.
The More menu icon displays a notification badge when there are unread items in Messages.
In Messages, you may find document change notifications and/or review and approve workflow messages.
Selected items expand so you can open the document the item relates to. Items are automatically archived after the document is opened from Messages.
