To edit and send a message to a specified client:

    The PC List window is displayed.

  2. Select the Asset No. check box of the client to which the message is to be sent.
    The client to which the message is to be sent is selected.

    Note
    HTML messages can be sent only if the version of JP1/Software Distribution Client is 08-10 or later. If the version is 08-00 or earlier, plain-text messages are sent even if HTML is selected.

  6. Enter the text.
    Enter the body of the message as a string of 32,768 or fewer bytes.

  7. Click the Notify button.
    A message box is displayed to confirm client notification.

  8. Click the OK button.
    The message is sent to the client, and the Action Message dialog box is displayed. If an error message is displayed, see 17.4.1 Action messages in the PC List window, and act accordingly.

  9. Click the Close button.
    The Action Message dialog box closes.

Note that messages can be sent even when client security management is disabled for the client.

Note
When a message is sent to a client user, the job execution result is saved as a processing job to the execution log of JP1/Software Distribution Manager. For details about saving the results of message notification jobs, see 6.12.2 Checking the execution results of message notification jobs.
