Notification Settings

The configurations on this screen serve the two purposes:

Enabling the warning and error alerts for the ADSS Server administrators and operators.
Setting up the Remote Authorisation Signing. The RAS Service needs to send the OTPs (Generated by SAM Service) to the user's registered email address and mobile number at the time of mobile device registration.
