Keywords Settings


SYNCHRO Daily Log helps you resolve issues by reading Notes for you and notifying you of important developments on the job when a specified word or phrase is used. For example: delay, accident, late, back charge, change order, etc.

Keywords sends you an email when one of the keywords is mentioned in a Note.

Enabling Keywords

Keyword Notifications must be enabled on an individual level for each individual that would like to receive notifications for specific words or phrases. Refer to Notification Settings for further information 

Add a new keyword to the entire account

Keywords added at an account level will automatically notify all people on every project that they have enabled keyword notifications for that project.

To create Account Level Keywords:

  1. Click on ‘ACCOUNT SETTINGS’ on the upper right of the screen

  2. Click on ‘Global Default Settings

  3. Input the new keyword

  4. Click Add Keyword.

  5. Click "Add All Keywords To Existing Projects" if you wish to do so (any new Keyword added will automatically be added to any new projects you create).
