The messaging application 
is an internal communication tool used to facilitate dialogue within your organisation. Your employees can communicate among themselves or with their managers via chat groups. Each user has a contacts list in his/her file – selected by you – listing the persons with whom he/she is able to communicate.
Depending on access rights to the software, messaging is available from:
•Portal
•Time & Activities
•Staff administration
•Planning
•Employee area
•Touchscreen terminal
If someone wishes not to be disturbed while working, they may go offline 
.
There are 3 separate roles:
•Employee - may receive messages and (possibly) answer them. They require a User - Collaborative tools, Access the Messages application.
•Manager - can create conversations. They require a User - Collaborative tools, Access the Messages application + Authorise sending messages to several participants.
•Moderator - may delete unwanted messages. They require a User - Collaborative tools, Access the Messages application + Permanent deletion of a conversation or message (Moderation).
