Previously, these messages reappeared every time the page was refreshed, which could disrupt the user experience. Users can clear these messages from the top of their screen in two ways: - Close: Temporarily hides the message. It will reappear the next time the page is refreshed. - Acknowledge and close: Confirms the user has read the message. The application will remember this preference for the specific browser being used and will not show the message again. Note: The message will reappear if the administrator updates the banner configuration with a new text or if the user clears their browser cache.
