Closings

For Tags go to Closings Tags

Use the Closings module to create notifications for institutions of any kind, from schools to government buildings to community centers, during statutory holidays, emergencies, or for inclement weather. For example, you may want to create a closing notification that lists the status of every school in a geographical district following a snowstorm.

You can create and manage your closings in Flow. From the Home page, select Content Control > Closings.

Closing Groups

Institutions are organized into Groups. Groups is a great way to split the types of Institutions, or to split your institutions by regions. (i.e: West End School Districts and East End School Districts). In a Rundown you have the ability to choose a closing group for playout, as well as a playlist.
