With MSS our supervisors will be entering personnel actions pending that will flow to the PA52. We would like this to trigger a smart notification with all the information that has been entered to the indirect supervisor. I can only get it to pull the header information (name, action, effective date) and the indirect supervisor code. It see the new information fields as repeats, combines them all together, and the field stays blank. How to I solve this issue?

Thanks,

I typically use SQL Queries with Smart Notes. You could join PERSACTION and PADICT (to get the field names). In your scenario this would only work while the action is pending, once the PA100 runs it will go into PERSACTHST/HRHISTORY.

Have you considered using process flow. It is built to trigger off PA52 actions. You could pull everything when the action gets entered to PA52 and then email the results.
You could build a different flow for each action type and instead of just notifying - you could trigger jobs, automatically verify data entered, or change other fields at the same time.

Do you have process flow installed?

Good luck. Let me know if you want to discuss.

I would agree with Shane. A simple process flow set up might be efficient in the long haul. We have a lot of process flows and they might be a little unweildy, but if you use a simple design, you'll find it works well.
