Steps: Set Up Time Off Notifications for Workday Everywhere

Steps: Set Up Time Off Notifications for Workday Everywhere

You can make it easier for workers and managers to manage time off by configuring actionable time off request and time off correction notifications to deliver to their Slack and Microsoft Teams workspaces.
Workday Everywhere supports only approval notifications for business process approval steps, not review steps.
You can receive notifications in Slack and Microsoft Teams workspaces regardless of whether you enable Workday Assistant or the Workday Self-Service Agent for Workday Everywhere.
