Watchers on Folders

Ctrl Hub allows a user to be a watcher on a folder and receive an email notification if a file in the folder has been uploaded or deleted.

A watcher on a folder is available anywhere that contains folders which include, Organisations, Employees, Teams, Vehicles, Equipment, Sites, Tasks, Certifications, Qualifications, Matrix Holders and Shared Folders.
