Using the Work Flow Setup > Work Tasks module > Notification tab users can select general task notifications (set up in the Notification Setup module). These will be automatically sent when that task is selected in a work order. These can be used to update employee's, and other recipients with Work Order information.
Task notifications are sent whenever the task is selected on a work order and the work order is saved.
Note: Notifications generated from imported field data are processed when you synch. Only email notifications can be sent regarding imported field data.
Most Work Order notifications can be overridden. When filling out the Work Order, before saving, go to the WO tab and check the corresponding override box.
Note: Checking the Task Box will override the General Task, Work Order Completion, and Priority Change notifications.
Note: Start Date Notifications (based on tasks) can NOT be overridden.
Note: When any of these checkboxes are marked, the system will NOT send the corresponding notifications. Overdue Problem Notifications may also be overridden in the Requests module. For additional information, follow this link.
Right click in the notification grid and select Add Record. The following window will appear:
Select a notification label from the pick list. This pick list comes from the Notifications Setup module.
Note: The Last Modified By and Last Modified Date fields are automatically populated.
Click to save the record.
Click to close the window.
After completing the above setup, every time that task is selected as the Main Task on a work order, all of the notifications in the notification grid will be sent out.
Note: The Work Task must be selected as the Main Task on the Work Order for the related notifications to be sent.
Note: Several General Task Notifications can be setup for one Work Task.
