Final PO Alert Configuration Form

The Final PO alert allows you to determine how and to whom Vision sends Final PO alerts. Final PO alerts are generated when a purchase order is printed and marked as "Final." This alert will always be sent to the requester, but you can also choose to have it sent to the requester's supervisor.

Location

To display the form, complete the following steps:

Field	Description
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.
Enabled	Select this option to enable the rule. When the alert is Active, this feature allows you to enable only selected rules, without having to delete any unwanted rules. In other words, if the alert is Active, then Vision will run any one of its Enabled rules. If the alert is not Active, then Vision will not run any of its rules, even if rules are Enabled.
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.
Send To
Requestor's Supervisor	Select this option if you want to send the alert to the requestor's supervisor. Alerts are automatically sent to the requester.
