Portal notifications per membership
A display message that appears in the OPAC per membership type is defined in the Wise configuration manager at Portal notifications per membership.
In Portal notifications per membership, you can configure a display notification to appear in the customer web portal when a customer signs in to My Account. The message displays in the upper right-hand corner of the web portal.
The notifications must be configured for each instance and can be unique to each membership and for each branch.
