2338588 - Enabling Email Notification after Enrollment - Benefits

Once an employee enrolls for a benefit and the enrollment is approved, he or she will receive an email notification regarding the same. You can specify the mail format and details of fields that must be included in the email.

For an employee to receive an email the admin must have performed the following settings:

• Selected Yes in Enrollment Required field on Create Benefit screen
• Activated Email Notification for Enrollment field on Create Benefit screen.
• Maintained the employee’s business email id in personal information page. Note that, email to personal mail id is not possible.
• Maintained at least one contact detail with a valid email id in the Useful Contact section while creating the benefit. The system uses this email id to send the email to the employee.

If there are more than one contact person’s detail maintained here, the system uses the first contact person’s email id.

Note

The admin is free to change the static content in the template but not the names of the placeholders. For example, do not change [EMPLOYEE_NAME] to [EMPLOYEE_NAMES]. 

In the templates for pensions and insurance, there is an extra character “*” as selected in the screen shot below. Based on this character, the system identifies the part of the email content that has to be repeated for multiple values, for example the Fund details or Nominee details. The admin can add extra static text in between these special character but they should not move the placeholders out of the special character, as this will result in erratic email content.

The admin has an option to choose the language in which he wants to create the template text. Changes made in one language do not automatically reflect in other languages. The admin must instead make the changes manually in all the supported languages
