Set Up Alerts for Transaction Entry File Submitted

Transaction Entry file Submitted alerts notify approvers that requests have been submitted. You specify who receives the alert, when, and under what conditions.

You can edit this alert only if the Enable transaction center approvals option is selected on the Transaction Center Approvals tab of the Accounting Company Settings form (Settings > Accounting > Company Settings).

The alert's recipient must have security access rights to the specified type of transaction for the hyperlink to open the Transaction Posting application. You define transaction security rights on the Accounting Tab of the Roles form (Settings > Security > Roles). On this tab, you must select the Full Access to All Transaction Types option or use the Transaction Type grid to select the Post option for the company and type of transaction.
