In-app notification center, notification types, and preference management

Notifications

HostMetrics includes an in-app notification system to alert hosts about important events across their fleet.

Notification Types

Type	Trigger
Document Expiry	A document is expiring within 30 days or has expired
Import Complete	A CSV import has finished processing
Payment Due	An investor payment period is ready for review
Sync Status	Chrome extension or toll sync completed or failed
Fleet Health	Fleet document health score drops below threshold

Notification Center

The notification center is accessible from the bell icon in the sidebar. It displays:

• Unread notification count badge
• Chronological list of notifications
• Read/unread status per notification
• Quick action links (e.g., “View Document” or “Review Payment”)

Notifications are stored in the database and persist across sessions.

Notification Preferences

In Settings > Notifications, users can configure:

• Which notification types are enabled
• Email notification toggle (in addition to in-app)

Email notifications are optional and off by default. All notifications always appear in the in-app notification center regardless of email settings.
