1.1 Overview
The KeyNavigator Message Center is designed to provide you with account activity and transaction alerts, when and how you need them. You can choose to receive Alerts via email or via SMS/Text message.
You can choose to receive some alerts by email and others via SMS/Text message. You can even choose to receive Alerts (i.e. high priority alerts) via both email and SMS/Text message. You can configure each Alert individually.
You also have the ability to set “quiet times” for SMS/Text messages as well as suspend both email and SMS/Text messages when you are out of the office. Alerts are always retained in Message History for you to view upon your return or when your designated quiet time ends.

Alerts will always be available in Message History even if Global Suspend has been enabled.
