Creating an Announcement
You can use announcements to share information with your users. For instance, you may wish to inform users about an application update or scheduled downtime – or provide links to a privacy policy or survey.
Announcements are displayed to all users in the upper right corner of the App Store. You may also optionally email an announcement to a specific user or group of users.
Create an Announcement
Using your preferred web browser, navigate to the URL for your Apporto system, for example, “mycollege.apporto.com”, and log in to the system using your Admin credentials.
Click the Announcements 
icon in the Navigation panel.
The ‘Announcements’ screen displays.
The Announcements screen shows a list of all currently active announcements. Each entry in the list shows the TITLE of the announcement, the user that created the announcement (AUTHOR NAME), and the date and time at which the announcement was initially published (DATE PUBLISHED).
Click New to create a new announcement.
Announcements are displayed in the upper right corner of the App Store for all users.
Later, you may also optionally email the announcement to specific user(s).

In the App Store, the Title will be displayed in the ANNOUNCEMENTS section. When an announcement is sent by email, the Title serves as the email subject.
