Your important updates, all in one place.
No more searching through emails to check whether payroll posted or a report is ready. Patriot’s new Notification Center brings important payroll and account updates right into your software, so you can see what needs your attention without leaving Patriot.
Stay up to date with a glance
Look for the new bell icon at the top of your screen. A badge shows how many unread notifications you have, and clicking the bell displays your five most recent messages.
Notifications appear automatically, without refreshing the page. And if you have Patriot open in multiple browser tabs, messages you’ve read will be marked as read across all of them.
Find what you need in your Inbox
Click View all messages to open your Inbox, where you can:
- Search messages to quickly find a specific update.
- Filter by All or Unread to focus on what needs attention.
- Mark messages as unread to revisit them later.
- View notifications across companies using All companies if you manage multiple accounts.
- Take action directly from a message with links like View payroll register or Download spreadsheet.
What notifications will you receive?
To start, the Notification Center will alert you when:
- Payroll posts successfully, including the pay date, or if posting fails.
- Your W-2 summary spreadsheet is ready to download, or if it couldn’t be generated.
- An AI agent is connected to your account.
We’ll continue adding more notification types over time.
You’ll still get your emails
The Notification Center doesn’t replace your Patriot emails. You’ll continue receiving them as usual, with the added convenience of finding important updates inside your software.
Rolling out to company Admins
We’re introducing the Notification Center in stages. If you don’t see the bell yet, keep an eye out. It’s coming soon!
