What happens if I’m included in the assignees of a Heads Up I create?

You're automatically marked as viewed and acknowledged when you publish the Heads Up, so you don't need to acknowledge it yourself. This applies whether you're assigned directly or through an assigned group or site.

Can I save a Heads Up as a draft or schedule it to publish later?

You can only save Heads Ups as drafts and schedule them for publishing later through the web app. If you want to save your Heads Up as a draft and come back to it later, click on the upper-left of the page, and select . You can also schedule your Heads Up to be published later by clicking on the right-hand side of the button and selecting a date and time.

Why create Heads Ups?

For many organizations, the lines of communication to frontline workers tend to be fragmented, confusing, and sometimes non-existent. This can create problems such as workers not being aware of regulation changes or managers not knowing who hasn't seen updated training materials. With Heads Up, we've created a one-to-many communication solution that guarantees simple knowledge sharing and acknowledgments.

Learn how to create a Heads Up in the Mitti app for better reach and strong team alignment.

If you have "Heads Up: Manage" permission, you can edit or delete Heads Ups, view acknowledgments, send reminders, and download all Heads Ups as CSV.
