I'm running into some issues while creating an automated rule to send a system generated notifications.
What I'm trying to accomplish is that an email be sent 3 days after an employee is assigned to an existing entry if they haven't confirmed the date associated with the entry. Here's a text version of what I'm envisioning the workflow to look like:
"Date PRR Confirmed w/ POC" is blank
+
"Total Briefing Hours Approved" has a numeric value in the field
+
3 calendar days after the "PRR/Briefer Name" field has a value input
=
System generated email is sent to Employee and their Manager is cc'd.
The first issue I'm experiencing is with the way a Send Notification is sending out emails. For some reason, when I insert a reference to the field that has the assigned employees name and cc: their manager, the greeting looks something like this
Hello i:0#.w|fsfs145557;i:0#.w|fsfs144640;i:0#.w|fsfs151557 ,
I have the SharePoint field set up to pull the employees name out of our company's Active Directory.
In my Nintex Send Notification configuration, I'm directing my To: field to the "PRR/Briefer Name" field in the SharePoint form. The cc: field is configured to look up the Manager who the value of the "PRR/Briefer Name" reports to.
My current workflow looks like this.
I've attempted to follow the training videos on the Nintex site, but my headphone out is broken on my computer and I'm having a difficult time following the lessons without audio. I won't have access to the training content for at least a couple of days. Any advice and insights on how to create this workflow and have the actual names of the employees and managers populate will be greatly appreciated.
