Notification Manager allows you to change the availability status assigned to an individual contact. The availability status of an individual determines how Notification Manager processes notification requests for this individual. If the individual is marked as unavailable, Notification Manager does not directly attempt to notify that individual. However, because forwarding methods point to a contact other than the selected individual, Notification Manager does consider forwards during the notification request.
You can use the Modify Individual Contact page within the Notification Website to change the availability of an individual contact. In addition, you can use this web page to specify the reason that this individual is currently unavailable. This reason is displayed on the Send a Notification web page, after the unavailable contact has been selected for notification.
Although Notification Manager processes forwards currently assigned to an unavailable contact, the Send a Notification web page can only be used to send notification requests to those contacts that have at least one non-forward (direct) method currently active. For this reason, you cannot notify an unavailable contact using this Send a Notification web page.
