Employee Group Rules

Field	Description
Employee Groups	Select the employee group to which you want to apply the new rule, such as Administration or Engineering. Or, select [All Groups], which allows you to create global alert rules for all employee groups without having to create redundant rule settings for each group. Groups are created in Time and Expense Configuration.
Alert Rule Name	This field displays the names of existing alert rules; or, if you are creating a new alert rule, enter the name of the rule. You can change the name of an existing rule; however, all alert rule names must be unique.
Languages	This column displays if you use the Vision Multilingual module. Use this column to select the language for this alert. Only employees with the selected language receive the alert. However, if you leave this column blank, all employees receive this alert regardless of their designated language. For example, if you create an email alert for English US and English UK, then only the users that have English US or English UK in the Language field in the Employee Info Center receive that message. The system administrator must set up a separate alert rule for Spanish employees to receive a message in Spanish. The Language field displays <languages selected> if any languages are selected.
Delivery Options	You can select one or more of these options. After the alert is delivered, the employee can acknowledge the labor transfer. Email Select this option if you want Vision to send the alert via email. In the email message, Vision provides a link to the timesheet. If you select this option, complete the Email Options fields. Dashboard Select this option if you want Vision to send the alert via the dashboard. In the alert, Vision provides a link to the Labor Transfer Audit screen. Groups are created in Time and Expense Configuration.
Email Options	If you selected Email for the delivery option, these fields are activated.
Subject	Enter the subject text for the email.
Message	Enter the message text for the email. You can either enter text directly in this field or you can use the text editor, which provides formatting tools. If you want to specify the name of the employee in the text, you can enter [EMPL]; for example Alert for [EMPL]. Vision will replace [EMPL] with the name of the employee.
