The Messaging Centre is used for all communications between the Lead Partner and the MA/JS. This section is only accessible for approved projects.
Difference between the Messaging Centre and an email
While email is communication between individuals, the Messaging Centre is for the direct exchange between the MA/JS and the Lead partner, i.e. all users with the Read+Write+Submit rights in BAMOS+. All users with the corresponding rights will have full access to the complete communication (sent and received messages) at any time.

The Messaging Centre supports attachments with a file size of 10MB each. The number of attachments per message is not limited.
