• Partial Approval Notification Enabled: If this option is enabled and a position/offer goes through a partial approval, notifications will be sent out. If it is turned off the partial approvals for the position/offer will not trigger notifications.
  
• Approval Request Reminder Notification Enabled: If this option is enabled and an approval request is pending, a reminder notification will be sent. If it is turned off the approval reminders for the position/offer will not be sent.
  
• Entity Approved Notification Enabled: If this option is enabled, and an entity (offer/position) is approved, then a notification will be triggered. If it is turned off the approval notifications for the position/offer will not be sent.
  
• Request Rejected Notification Enabled: If this option is enabled, and a request for approval of a position/offer is rejected, a notification is sent. If turned off then no notification will be triggered.
  
• Notification Enabled: This enables a particular set of notifications. If it is set to off then no notification will be triggered.

Notification Channel Configuration Options

• Per-channel config: This option provides granular control over how notifications are sent. It allows you to enable notifications for specific channels like email or Slack individually. You must choose a channel here to receive a notification. You can enable just email or just slack or both.
  
• All channels config: This option will enable notifications for all the available channels. When selected, it automatically enables notifications for all available channels, typically email and Slack. If you select this option all channels notifications will be turned on.

How to Enable Slack Notifications

To enable notifications for Slack specifically, you have two options:

1. Using "All channels config": Enable the "All channels config" option if available. This is the most direct way to enable Slack notifications along with other available channels.
   
2. Using "Per-channel config": Expand the notification setting of your choice and then choose "Per-channel config". Under the channels available make sure to enable the “Slack” option.
