What it does
When you type @ in a note or a contact-report field, SENTRY offers matching citizens, organizations, and groups. Pick one. That name becomes a link, and the write-up can show up on that profile’s intel for people who are allowed to see it.
Mentions are not a ping storm. They do not email the verse. They connect records so the next reader can click through.
Mentions do not grant access
Tagging a player or an org does not give them permission to read the note or contact report. A mention only links that write-up onto their SENTRY profile so people who already may see it can find it there.
Who can open the intel is still the dissemination list — you, plus the people, orgs, and groups you chose as chips. If someone is not on that list, they will not see the item on the mentioned profile (or anywhere else), even if they were @named in the text.
How to use them
- In a text box that says you can mention, type @ then a few letters of a handle, SID, or group name.
- Arrow keys or click to choose. Enter to insert.
- Keep writing. You can mention several people in one paragraph.
- The menu is SENTRY’s database, not RSI live search. If someone is missing, look them up on the site first so they exist in SENTRY.
- Groups appear too — useful when the audience is a standing team, not one handle.
