Email Notification
The project admin can enable/disable email notifications at the project level. The notifications are then triggered on the occurrence of the events for which the email notification is enabled.
The email notification action is kept configurable so that the project admin can turn the notifications off whenever required.
→ Required Permissions:
If a Group(s) is not configured for QTM4J Project Settings under QTM4J > Global Settings, all groups/users having "Project Administer" and "Browse Project" Permissions will be able to access the QTM4J Project Settings by default. They can configure Email Notification.
If a Group(s) is configured for QTM4J Project Settings under QTM4J > Global Settings, users under the selected Groups AND with "Project Administer" and "Browse Project" Permissions will be able to access the QTM4J Project Settings and configure Email Notification.
An email notification will be triggered when -
a user is assigned as an Assignee either while creating or editing the test case/test cycle.
a user is assigned as an Execution Assignee for executing the test case.
the Status of a test case/test cycle is updated. The email notification will be sent to the Assignee and Reporter.
the Status of a test plan is updated. The email notification will be sent to the Reporter.
the Execution Result is changed. The email notification will be sent to the Execution Assignee.
the test assets are assigned in bulk or statuses are changed in bulk. A consolidated email notification will be sent on the bulk assignment or bulk status change.
the Assignee/Execution Assignee/Reporter is other than the logged-in user.
Email notifications are not sent when the logged-in user does assignments for themselves or when the logged-in user, who possesses the assignments, makes changes to their status.
Note: The email notification feature does not apply to the following functionalities:
Automation API
Import test cases
Export to other projects

Re-index Users
QMetry does not receive any updates on user activation or deactivation in Jira. To sync the users in QMetry with that in Jira you can use the Re-index Configuration. Once the re-index is completed, the deactivated users will not receive an email for Assignee or Status change.
Steps
1. Go to QMetry > Configuration.
2. Select the Re-index section on the navigation bar.
3. Select User as the Entity Type.
4. Click on the Start Reindex button to initiate the process.
