How to stop email notifications when Project "state" is changed to "running" by START

We want to change the "state" for select number of Projects without emails being sent out. We don't want to impact other unrelated notifications\emails from being sent. Can the email queue be emptied before disabling without impacting other notidcations in the queue?

Set State or a Promotion with no notifications?

My gut tells me this notification is hard coded in the Project Link net
markets library like replacing folks on roles. You may need a spam filter
to catch them?

A database triggered update might bypass this subroutine.

Stephen Oerton- Changing states of the ProjectLink Project itself forces you through "Start" which then sends notification to all team members.

David DeMay- A spam filter may be a viable option... I'll look into that.

I don't have a solution for this, but it would be great to get a Product Idea submitted for more control over the email notifications sent by ProjectLink. At a minimum, it would be nice to have a checkbox in the UI to allow the initiator the choice of whether or not notifications should be sent.

Steve,


We had this same issue.


Use xconfmanager to update the wt.properties file on the server.


Set this;


wt.inf.team.sendInvitationEmail=False

This will disable all functionality related to invitations if that is what
is desired.

In our case, that was desired. We have enough other notifications occuring through various workflows to suffice. From what we gather, we use ProjectLink much different than other Windchill customers.

Yes! This is what we need. Thank you!
