The Daily Digest is an email that arrives at the end of each day and summarises what happened at a condo over the previous 24 hours. It is the most complete of Managemate's four scheduled emails.
You receive one Daily Digest per condo. If you have access to several condos, each one sends its own digest, and the contents are never mixed.
When you will receive it
The Daily Digest arrives at 5:00 PM (Eastern Time) and covers the previous 24 hours.
You receive one email per condo you have access to.
Your digest only includes records you have permission to view. Two people at the same condo may receive different digests.
If there is nothing to report for you that day, no email is sent.
What is inside
Activity Updates
Activities are grouped into three lists, and each group header tells you how many updates it contains and how many activities they are spread across.
To Do, for activities that are neither overdue nor complete
Overdue, for activities past their due date and not complete
Completed, for activities completed in the period
Each activity appears in one list only.
Below each activity you will see any status updates and notes added that day, showing who wrote it, when, and enough of the text to judge whether you need the rest. Select View Full Update or View Full Note to read it in Managemate. Where more than one was added, a count such as +2 more tells you how many others are waiting.
Other Updates
Reminders, for overdue items, and contracts that expired or renewed
Projects, showing new, completed and overdue projects with their duration
Documents, grouped as General Documents, Financial Statements and Certificates, each showing how many activities it is linked to
Vendors, for new vendors and vendors with new notes
Invoices, showing the amount, the vendor, and the approval status such as Pending Approval or Approved
A NEW badge marks anything created in the last 24 hours. Where an older record received a fresh update, the badge appears on the update rather than on the record.
How this differs from the Weekly Digest
The two digests share the same design, and the Daily Digest is deliberately broader.
Arrives. Daily Digest, 5:00 PM daily. Weekly Digest, Friday 5:00 PM.
Covers. Daily Digest, the last 24 hours. Weekly Digest, the last 7 days plus the next 7.
Notes. Included in the Daily Digest. Not included in the Weekly Digest.
Documents. Daily Digest covers all document types. Weekly Digest covers Certificates and Financial Statements only.
Vendors and invoices. Included in the Daily Digest. Not included in the Weekly Digest.
Week ahead. Not in the Daily Digest. Included in the Weekly Digest, laid out by day.
Managers generally prefer the Daily Digest, because a week is a long time to wait to learn that something changed on Tuesday. Board directors are usually well served by the Weekly Digest alone, although some directors who follow the work closely prefer the Daily Digest and turn the weekly one off.
Receiving both is also fine, and many users do.
How to turn it on or off
Log in to your Managemate account
Click your user profile icon in the top right of any page, then select View Profile
Select the Notifications tab
Under Digests, find Daily Digest / New Records
Turn Email on or off
Green means on. Grey means off.
Daily Digest / New Records controls three different things. Email is the once daily digest described in this article. In app and Push are instant notifications sent as each record is created. If Managemate feels noisy, turning Push off while leaving Email on is usually the change that helps.
Your notification settings apply to every Workspace you have access to.
On mobile: push notifications require the Managemate mobile application to be installed, with notifications allowed on your device.
