Subcontractor Prequalification - Automatic Workflow to Send Prequalification Notices
How the Workflow to Send Prequalification Notices Works
What does the workflow look at to know who the renewal notifications need to go out to?
It will look at the email listed under the Business Partner tab of the Business Partner Maintenance screen, as shown below.
Is it the expiration date on the prequal?
Yes.
If so, is it set up to go out on the day the prequal expires, or a set interval prior to the expiration date?
Two set intervals.
What are the parameters on the First Renewal and Second Renewal notices going out?
The intervals are specified by the Interval for First Notice and Interval for Second Notice lookups, as shown in the screenshot below. Ensure these are set up before launching the workflow. If these intervals are not defined before the launch, the workflow will terminate immediately with an error.
