# Notifications and alerts

> Alerts, the Reports panel, your notification groups, and how items clear themselves.

AI Ready separates *things you owe someone an answer on* from *things worth knowing
about*. The first is **Alerts**; the second is **Notifications**. Reports being generated
get a panel of their own between the two.

Your dashboard shows all three, and **Dashboard → Notifications** shows the same picture,
except the two review alerts, which appear on the dashboard only. Alerts and Reports
appear only when they have something to say; the grouped notifications stay put either
way, so there is always one place on the dashboard that answers "is anything waiting
for me?".

## Alerts

**Alerts**, *"Things that need your attention."*, appears whenever someone is waiting on
you, and disappears entirely when nobody is. A caught-up dashboard stays quiet.

An alert means a decision is yours to make:

* **Review your organisation profile** and **Review advisor permissions**, see
  [Review requests](#review-requests) below.
* **Complete your organisation profile** — evaluations stay locked until it is done.
  Select **Get started** to open the [getting-started checklist](/using/getting-started).
* An advisor asking to advise your organisation, or asking for **more access** on an
  engagement you already have.
* For an advisor organisation: a company that has invited your firm to advise them.
* **Request an advisor match** once your report is ready.

Alerts carry **no dismiss control**. They clear by being acted on, and an alert you could
hide is an action that could be lost. The one exception is the advisor-match prompt, whose
**Dismiss** records a real decision ("no thanks") rather than hiding the row.

The box shows five alerts at a time; **See \[n] more** expands the rest and **See less**
folds them back.

## Reports

After you submit an evaluation, its analysis appears in the **Reports** panel and stays
there until you open it. One row per submission, which changes as the analysis moves:

| Badge          | What it means                                                                        |
| -------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Pending**    | Queued, waiting to be picked up.                                                     |
| **Processing** | The analysis is running now.                                                         |
| **Ready**      | The report is done. Select **View report**.                                          |
| **Failed**     | The analysis failed. It can be re-run by the team; contact support if this persists. |

The panel updates itself while something is generating, so you can leave it on screen —
no refreshing, and nothing to hunt for. Pending and processing rows have no dismiss,
because the report is still coming. Once a report is **Ready**, opening it clears the row;
a **Failed** row has its own dismiss.

The panel shows the five most recent rows, with **See {n} more** to open the rest and
**See less** to fold them away again, and a **View all** link to the full
[Notifications](#notifications) page. On an advisor dashboard the rows are headed **by
client** wherever more than one client is involved, so a firm can tell whose analysis is
whose.

Older reports live under **Reports** in the menu.

When a report becomes **Ready**, an email goes out with the subject **Your AI readiness
report is ready** and a button that opens it. It reaches the person who started the
evaluation and the person who submitted it, which is usually one and the same; when a
colleague picks up someone else's draft and submits it, both are told. Nobody else in the
organisation is emailed.

Two things stop it reaching you: switching off report notifications (see
[Choosing what reaches you](#choosing-what-reaches-you)), which silences the email and the
on-screen row together, and no longer having access to that organisation by the time the
report lands.

## Review requests

When an advisor sets up your organisation on the platform, the details they entered and
the access they hold are yours to confirm. AI Ready shows this as review alerts with a
single **Review** action each:

<Steps>
  <Step title="Select Review">
    **Review your organisation profile** takes you to your Organisation Profile;
    **Review advisor permissions** takes you to **Organisation → Advisors**. The item to
    check is highlighted with a **Needs review** marker.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Act where the data lives">
    On the target page, either confirm things as they are, edit the profile, change the
    advisor's permissions, or revoke their access. Whatever you decide, taking the action
    records your review.
  </Step>

  <Step title="The alert clears itself">
    Once the review is recorded, the alert disappears from the dashboard on the next
    visit. There is nothing to tick off manually.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  Review alerts are per advisor relationship. If your organisation works with more than
  one advisor, reviewing one advisor's permissions does not clear a review pending for
  another.
</Note>

## Notifications

Everything else arrives grouped under **Continue assessments**, **Requests &
invitations**, and **Follow-ups**, with the most actionable groups leading and the rows
inside each group ordered by **priority**, what to do next first; switch **Sort by** to
**Most recent** for newest first. Each row has its own action and dismiss control. When
there is nothing new, the feed reads *"You're all caught up; nothing new right now."*

Typical notifications: an evaluation you started and can continue, invitations you sent
that nobody has accepted yet, a request for more access that a client hasn't answered,
and a composed meeting-prep brief.

If your organisation is an advisor organisation, rows are grouped **by client** wherever
more than one client is involved, so a firm's feed reads client by client.

The full **Notifications** page adds three controls above the groups (the dashboard's
capped preview does not, since it has its own page to open):

* **Category**, to show one group at a time. **All categories** is the default.
* **Client**, on an advisor feed carrying more than one client. **All clients** is the
  default.
* **Sort by**, either **Priority** (what to do next, the default) or **Most recent** (what
  just happened).

The controls only change what you are looking at; nothing is dismissed or marked by
filtering.

The sidebar carries the same signal twice, at two levels of detail. **Dashboard** — the
summary row — shows a plain dot whenever anything is waiting, and keeps showing it when
the sidebar is collapsed to icons. The **Notifications** entry beneath it shows the actual
number, up to `99+`, counting alerts, reports and notifications together. The count is
re-read every time you change page, so it always matches what the dashboard shows.
Following an item's link dismisses it.

## Choosing what reaches you

**My Settings → Notifications** lists every kind of notification that applies to your
type of organisation, each with a one-line description of what it covers. Clear a checkbox and that kind stops appearing anywhere:
the dashboard, the Notifications page, the sidebar count, and any email that kind would
have sent. **Select all** switches the
whole list back on, and **Save Preferences** stores it against your own account, so the
choice follows you to any device.

Alert kinds are listed too, marked **Always on**, and cannot be switched off. An alert
means someone is waiting on a decision from you, so it clears by being acted on rather
than by being hidden.
