All databases for an instance of Notification Services, including application databases, must use the same collation.

Exemple
The following example shows a CollationName element set to a SQL Server collation. The collation uses the Latin1 General dictionary sorting rules, code page 437 (United States English), and uses binary sort order.
<CollationName>SQL_Latin1_General_Cp437_BIN</CollationName>
The following example shows a CollationName element set to the Latin1 General dictionary sorting rules, Windows code page 1252. This collation is case-insensitive and accent-sensitive.
<CollationName>Latin_General_CI_AS</CollationName>
