InCopy notification

[melissav15699928]

How do I notify editors of updated assignments? My editors are doing many other things and only open IC for our projects. How do I notify them that their assignment is updated? Do I need to email them, or is there an automated system? This is all I could find on Adobe's site:

Notify users when an InCopy content file is outdated, being used by someone, or available for editing. Notification methods include alert messages, frame icons, status icons in the Links panel, and status icons in the Assignments panel.

It sounds like users need to somehow KNOW to check the assignment file on the server...

Thanks!

Email, phone call, or just walk over and tell them.

There are third party products that handle this type of thing but they’re not free.

That's what I thought, but thought I was missing something. The description makes it sound like it's a native functionality. Thanks!
