The Inbox functions as a repository within Dispatcher Stratus for jobs, notifications, and processes associated with your tenant’s workflows. Clicking on an information or Error notification will open a dialog window with additional information, and clicking on a Job will take you to the Jobs page to view detailed information about that task. The Inbox is the primary location for information about workflows, including when new jobs enter workflows, errors in processing, etc.
