Backend setup

To subscribe to alerts the users or the groups/roles they are a member of will need the "Can subscribe to events" option enabled.

Email

The XLCubed Scheduling service must be running with the SMTP servers configured correctly

To be able to receive emails the user's active directory account will need the email property set.
