About This Feature

Overview

Message Notification Settings is a Smart Forms attendance configuration feature in WPS Office for Mac. It is used to adjust message reminder settings and control how those settings are saved and applied in the attendance workflow.

Core tasks include:

  • Open the message notification settings entry from the form editor.
  • Configure reminder parameters and preview the result before saving.
  • Save the settings and, when needed, publish a new version so the updated rules apply to respondents.

This feature fits daily attendance check-ins, event sign-ins, team reminders, and recurring collection workflows. It helps form creators review reminder rules before publishing and reduces issues such as unsaved changes, unsuitable reminder timing, or updates that have not taken effect yet.
