Dashboard Alert Action for Workflows

The Dashboard Alert action allows you to create a workflow that will send a dashboard message to a selected person when the conditions that you specify for this workflow are met.

For example, you can create a workflow that states that when a new employee is added to Vision, then send a dashboard message to the new employee's supervisor.

For dashboard alerts, Vision will only send the message when all other specified actions have successfully taken place. If the workflow failed at any point, Vision will not send the dashboard message.

For example, you can create a workflow that states that when a new employee is added to Vision and a timesheet is created for that employee, then send a dashboard message to the new employee's supervisor. In this case, if a new employee is added to Vision, but no timesheet was created, then no dashboard message would be sent to the supervisor.

When you select this action, Vision displays the Dashboard Configuration dialog box.
