EmailPlusRuleSubscription record type

The EmailPlusRuleSubscription record type enables users to subscribe to notifications that are generated by the associated EmailPlusRule.

The subscription record is a separate entity. In an HCL Compass MultiSite environment, there can be an editable subscription record at each replica on which you want the functionality to be available. If no EmailPlusRuleSubscription records are created for a rule, then no subscription is possible for that rule.

Users subscribe to a rule by locating the subscription record for the rule they want to subscribe to in their local replica. Users can add themselves to the subscription list by clicking Add Me. They can remove themselves by clicking Remove Me. The EmailPlus administrator can restrict which users can subscribe to a rule. See Adding subscribers to an EmailPlus rule.

Note: EmailPlus queries the database to find the subscription records and their members, but only for rules that are evaluated as true. These are not cached, so new subscriptions take effect almost immediately. For MultiSite configurations, there might be a delay until the remote records are replicated.
