Configure notification templates

Notification templates define the content and format of messages that KAIZEN sends to users for events such as workflow task assignments, approvals, or system alerts. By configuring templates at the project level, you can standardise the messaging across your applications and ensure that notifications are consistent, localised, and relevant to your users.
