Notification events and templates
BMC Helix Business Workflows provides default notifications for users to get started with the product. The notifications are for events that occur during likely use of the product, and that are applicable to all the companies in a tenant. For example, the default Case Status Change notification notifies a case assignee when a case status is changed.
As a case business analyst, you can refer to these notifications to create custom notifications.
Best practice
BMC recommends that you do not modify the default notifications. If you modify them, after the upgrade, you lose your changes.

Note
In the notification template, variables, for example, Case ID, Priority, Status, and so on have corresponding placeholders. When a notification is triggered, these placeholders display the current value of that variable.
For example, a variable Case ID has a corresponding placeholder $1$. When a notification is triggered for a case with ID as Case-1234, the placeholder $1$ displays the actual case ID (Case-1234) in the notification.
