Notifications & Reminders Not Received

Why expected emails or WhatsApp messages from CustoMED do not arrive, and what to check.

This article helps you find out why an email or WhatsApp message you expected from CustoMED did not arrive. It is for anyone who is missing case notifications or reminders. Check these in order.


1. Check that your role receives that email

Not every role receives every email. For example, case created, completed and archived emails and most reminders go to Organization Back Office users, Organization Admins and Organization Supervisors, not to Clinicians. See the table in Managing Email Notifications & Reminders.


2. Check your notification preferences

Click your name at the top left, choose My Account and expand Notifications. Check that the email type you expect is switched on. If it is on and still nothing arrives, your organization may have turned that type off for your role: contact CustoMED support to check.

My Account with Notifications open: Case sent for review, Case completed and status updates, Comments and mentions on your cases, and Case shared with you, each with an email switch

3. Check email delivery

  • Look in your spam or junk folder and add CustoMED to your safe senders.

  • Check that the email address on your account is correct. You can see it under My Account.

  • If you use more than one organization, make sure the case belongs to the organization you expect.


4. Expected behavior

  • Demo cases never send emails, reminders or WhatsApp messages.

  • Demo, test and trial organizations have notifications turned off.

  • Archived cases do not trigger reminders.


5. Reminder timing

Reminders are not sent immediately. They are collected into one email and sent at the time of day set for your organization, in local time. If a reminder seems late, it may be waiting for that time.


6. WhatsApp (CORA)

WhatsApp messages are only sent if your CustoMED account is linked to WhatsApp. Check the WhatsApp column under Notifications in My Account: the WhatsApp switches are separate from the email ones. See CORA WhatsApp Notifications.

Still missing a message? Contact CustoMED support with the case ID and the email or message you expected.
