Notify Assignee's Supervisor Dialog Box
Use this dialog box to have a notification alert sent to the supervisors of the employees who are assigned to an approval step.
You set up the alert to be sent either a certain number of days after the step is due or after the step has been started. These alerts are usually sent to inform supervisors that their employee is late in responding to the step.
After you complete the information on this dialog box and add the notification alert to an approval step, click the Email and/or Dashboard hyperlinks in the Edit Content field in the Step Actions grid to select the employees to send the alert to and create the specific message to include in the alert.
