In many cases, there are groups of people that need to be notified when an event happens. Namings and setup may vary after the needs you have.

In this tutorial, we will describe how the members of the group Accounting will be notified when the event Billing is thrown.

   1. assign or load members into the group

4. Add the group custom field to the screen of your project
