To make the managed distribution content management more efficient, you can enable a volume purchasing notification. This allows Jamf Pro to send you a daily email after the predefined condition is triggered. You can also specify the recipients to send the notification to. To properly configure a notification, at least one location must exist in Jamf Pro, and you must be logged in with a Jamf Pro user account that has full access or site access and an email address configured.

Requirements

To add volume purchasing notifications, you need:

  • An SMTP server set up in Jamf Pro (For more information, see SMTP Server Integration.)

  • At least one location configured in Jamf Pro

  • Email notifications enabled for Jamf Pro user accounts (For more information, see Email Notifications.)

  1. In Jamf Pro, click Settings in the sidebar.
  2. In the Global section, click Volume purchasing .
  3. Click Notifications.
  4. Click New.
  5. Use the New Volume Purchasing Subscription pane to configure the settings for the notification, including the display name, the trigger, and tokens that you want to monitor.
    Note:

    Jamf Pro users with the "Volume Purchasing Locations" privilege that have site access are allowed to manage notifications in the context of the site.

  6. Click the Scope tab and configure the scope of the notification by adding recipients:
    1. Click Add to add recipients of the notification. You can select the existing Jamf Pro user accounts, or manually add external recipients that are not registered in Jamf Pro.
    2. Click Done in the top-right corner of the pane.
  7. Click Save .

After adding a volume purchasing notification, you must enable it.
