alert or a workflow/email when an employee Time off balance of his vacation leave is below 0

[adriangalisteo]

Hi

Is it possible to generate a to do alert in Home Page (i do not mean an alert message in employee time UI when requesting leave) or a workflow/email when an employee Time off balance of his vacation leave is below 0 or any other number?

Regards

Put a post save rule on employee time. Below an example I had built for when it reaches 0 (as this 1 can't go below 0). Lower than 0 should be rather similar (to get the pop-up on the home page, it should be an approval step in the workflow).

Thanks Jasper

i see you are using a lookup table

is this mandatory in my case?

It is not, it just tries to find which time account it is (hence user and time account type as criteria to find the unique code).
I'm quite sure you have a Time Account entity in there 🙂

that is true, actually is a nice idea

I configured this rule, maybe i have to tweak the dates or make it a "today" as yours, anyway that part is detected by the rule trace as i see

The problem i am experiencing is with the Execute "trigger employee time alert event" which looks like is collecting perfectly all data, (workflow, date, message, external code) but i do not see an email getting to the manager (i wrote my email in his profile so i should receive it myself) or a to-do/workflow alert in his home page. I see that the trace says "Result:"null" but i do not know what means in this case or if it has something to do with not being receiving the alerts.

Do you know if it is because of that?

I really appreciate your help

thanks
