Concept: Notification Recipients in Settings
Notifications enable you to set up notices that are triggered automatically when an event occurs in Workday VNDLY. You set up notifications by enabling a template that sends a predetermined message to the recipients specified in the template. Depending upon the template, you can have Workday VNDLY send an email to recipients as well as notifying the recipients directly in Workday VNDLY. Also, depending upon the template and your permissions, you can edit the message and recipients of the email.
Example: You want to make sure that the resource managers are notified when a candidate accepts a scheduled interview. In Notifications, you can enable a template that sends an email to users automatically when a candidate accepts a scheduled interview and adds the Resource Manager user role as a recipient.
Not all notifications are editable based on criteria that are within the notification.
From the header, go to to view and manage notifications. From the
Communication
section, click Notifications
. We're in the process of adding to notification templates the ability to customize recipients and specify how the notification is delivered. Not all notifications have been converted to this functionality.
When managing your notifications, consider:
Tab | Definition |
|---|---|
Settings | Controls how you edit and distribute email notifications. See Set Up Email Notifications
|
Templates | Lists notification templates that you can enable and disable. Depending on the template, you can also edit the recipients and the notification message. See Edit Notifications. |
Groups | Creates and edits groups of users that you can add to a notification template.
Example: You want to make sure that Workday VNDLY alerts both users with the MSP role and users with the Administrator role when a bulk upload fails. Instead of adding 2 different role tags as recipients for the notification, you can create a user group called Troubleshooters with both the MSP and Administrator tag. You can use that user group as recipients for the notification. |
