title: Part Notifications
 | 
						|

 |

 | 
						|
## Notifications
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Users can select to receive email notifications when certain events occur.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
!!! warning "Email Configuration Required"
 | 
						|
    Notifications require correct [email configuration](../../start/config/#email-settings)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
!!! warning "Valid Email Address"
 | 
						|
    Each user must have a valid email address associated with their account to receive email notifications
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Low Stock Notification
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If the *minimum stock* threshold is set for a *Part*, then a "low stock" notification can be generated when the stock level for that part falls below the configured level.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Any users who are subscribed to notifications for the part in question will receive a low stock notification via email.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Build Order Notification
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
When a new [Build Order](../../build/build/) is created, the InvenTree software checks to see if any of the parts required to complete the order are low on stock.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If there are any parts with low stock, a notification is generated for any users subscribed to notifications for the part being built.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Subscribing to Notifications
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Users can "subscribe" to either a *Part* or *Part Category*, to receive notifications.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Part
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
When subscribed to a *Part*, a user will receive notifications when events occur which pertain to:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- That particular part
 | 
						|
- Any variant parts
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If a user is subscribed to a particular part, it will be indicated as shown below:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
{% with id="part_sub_on", url="part/part_subscribe_on.png", description="Subscribe" %}
 | 
						|
{% include 'img.html' %}
 | 
						|
{% endwith %}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If the user is not subscibed, the subscription icon is greyed out, as shown here:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
{% with id="part_sub_off", url="part/part_subscribe_off.png", description="Subscribe" %}
 | 
						|
{% include 'img.html' %}
 | 
						|
{% endwith %}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Clicking on this icon will toggle the subscription status for this part.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Part Category
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
When subscribed to a *Part Category*, a user will receive notifications when particular events occur which pertain to:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- That particular category
 | 
						|
- Any sub-categories at lower levels
 | 
						|
- Any parts contained in the category
 | 
						|
- Any parts contained in the lower level categories
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Subscribing to a part category operates in the same manner as for a part - simply click on the notification icon:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
{% with id="cat_sub", url="part/category_notification.png", description="Subscribe to part category" %}
 | 
						|
{% include 'img.html' %}
 | 
						|
{% endwith %}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Subscription List
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Users can view the parts and categories they are subscribed to on the InvenTree home page:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
{% with id="cat_subs", url="part/cat_subs.png", description="Category subscription list" %}
 | 
						|
{% include 'img.html' %}
 | 
						|
{% endwith %}
 |
