Contents of the GL Budget Group Notification Dialog Box

Review the text and settings of notifications about approval workflows for GL budget groups.

Field Description
Text The text on this dialog box informs you that validation errors were encountered when the approval workflow was restarted after you saved changes to the approval workflow. A list of the approval records that need to be reviewed and resubmitted is included in the message.
Notify Submitter Click this button to have Vantagepoint send an email message to each employee who originally submitted a record that needs to be reviewed and resubmitted.

The subject of the email messages sent to submitters is: When the workflow was restarted for <application name>, records encountered errors. Review these records and submit them again to restart workflow.

The email recipient sees only a list of records that they originally submitted, which they now need to review and resubmit. The email message lists the record number (for example the purchase order number) and a hyperlink to the record, so the original submitter can easily open a record to review and resubmit it. The error message description (from the Description field for the Validate Error at Start or Validate Error action in the Step Action grid on the Workflow tab in Configuration > Workflow > Approval Workflows) is also listed with the record number.

After Vantagepoint sends the email messages, the Errors Encountered dialog box closes, and you are returned to the Approvals Configuration form.
