Disable email notification when a call is logged

Beschreibung

When a new call is logged in Salesforce as a Task activity, users assigned to that task may receive an email notification by default. This behavior can be disabled at the org level or on a per-layout basis using two available settings:

  1. Enable User Control over Task Assignment Notifications — an org-level setting in Activity Settings that allows individual users to control their own email notifications for Task assignments globally.
  2. Email Notification checkbox — a Task Page Layout property that controls whether the notification checkbox is shown and selected by default when creating a Task.

Use this article to determine which setting applies to your org configuration and disable the unwanted email notification behavior.
