Making County Announcements

If you're an administrator in ZSuite, you can send announcements that will show up on the dashboards of those of levels underneath your account.

This is a great way to advertise events and program opportunities.

Examples:

County Admins can send announcements to all volunteers/unit leaders/unit members for their county.
State Admins can send announcements to all 4-H staff/volunteers/unit leaders/unit members for their state.
Unit Leaders can send announcements to their unit members/volunteers.

To add an announcement to the system:

1. Locate the 'Announcements' card on your dashboard.

2. Click the '+ See all announcements, add, or change announcement' link at the bottom of the card.

Once you get to the Announcements card, you can add/change/delete announcements made at your administrative level, or below.

3. To add a new announcement, click the green '+ ANNOUNCEMENT' button at the bottom of the card. (See below)

4. Add an announcement title

5. From the drop-down menu select choose the recipients of the announcement. For county admins as an example, they can select the announcement to go county wide or specify unit(s).

6. Enter a show until date. The Announcement will not be visible if this field is left blank.

7. Enter in the announcement details (who/what/when/where/why) Always include a primary point of contact, including name(s), phone, and email address. Hyperlinks can be added by clicking the chain link, or pasting in text that includes a hyperlink.

8. Click 'Save' the announcement will become live in ZSuite.

Your announcement will show up on your recipient dashboards upon their next login to ZSuite.
