电子邮件通知的自动化工作流程排序

你好,我一直在向我的同事推出一些新的表格/流程,我遇到了一个小障碍,我希望能从你们这些了不起的社区成员那里得到澄清。

场景1:我有一个输入表单,将自动分配请求给用户,我还想发送一个警报,分配给用户。当我在测试设置表单时,警报被设置为“发送给特定的人”(我),一切都很正常。然后我将提醒改为“单元格中的联系人”,并选择“分配给”用户。不幸的是,他没有收到邮件。我猜测,由于在创建请求时分配给是空白的,因此两个操作(分配人员和提醒单元格中的联系人)必须存在于两个独立的自动化工作流中。我已经通过使用“发送到特定的人”选项并将人的名字硬编码到工作流中来解决这个问题(我相信)。我希望能避免这种情况,但看起来不太可能。

场景2:我有一个团队,将详细信息输入到一个工作表中,一旦他们将一个单元格从No/Blank切换到Yes,那么该行将自动分配给用户,并应通过电子邮件发送给该字段中的人。现在,我怀疑我在这里遇到了同样的问题,即电子邮件通知无法转到字段中的联系人,因为该字段尚未由相同的工作流填充。同样,我将特定人员硬编码到自动化中。


我希望这是有意义的,也许这是一个明确的最佳实践,但我希望避免使用硬编码的名称值,并不得不创建多个工作流来完成多步骤任务。

    根据我的经验和我刚刚在自己的工作表上进行的测试,当使用Assign People操作时,您无法像使用其他操作一样在其下方添加后续操作。请看下面的例子:

    我可以在提醒某人下添加工作流操作,但不能在分配人员时添加

    @Jake Gustafson您可以创建您想要的自动化。

    首先,确保正确设置了自动化的权限设置。如果您要分配任务的人员未共享到工作表,则可能会导致问题。对于我向外部电子邮件发送提醒的自动化,我使用无限制的,并且还没有遇到任何问题。

    然后设置自动分配用户。触发器:当添加或更改行时。当'YOUR FIELD'更改为任何值时。为每个被分配的人设定条件,然后确定谁将被分配。

    接下来,您将需要创建一个单独的工作流来提醒被分配的人员。触发器:当添加或更改行时。当assign To更改任何值时,向该用户发送警报。

    希望这对你有帮助!

    谢谢@Garrett亨特。我确实设置了“无限制”自动化权限,所涉及的人员是工作表上的管理员,并共享到整个工作区。所以没有问题。

    然后我创建了两个独立的自动化:1)分配用户,然后2)通知分配给的用户。我希望能够将这些组合成一个单一的工作流程,但我从你的经验和反馈中掌握的是,这对我试图使用的警报风格不起作用。

    我对我的工作流程做了一些调整,把事情分开,把两个分开,这样我就可以避免尽可能多的硬编码值。

    是的,我认为我之前没有考虑过事件/操作的顺序,当硬编码给一个特定的人时,因为不管Assign people操作如何,电子邮件通知都会发送给硬编码的人。

    有时需要通过交谈来获得完全的理解。我没有完全理解我以前没有这样做(因为我一直在通知特定人员并在相同的工作流程中分配人员)。现在我正试着通知指定人员,我意识到排序的重要性。

  • 嗨,Smartsheet社区,


    我在通知和自动化方面遇到了问题。我已经适当地添加了自动提醒某人,当一个特定的条件分配给他们。然而,当该条件完成/达到时,它会不断发送通知,请求该人员执行任务,即使在再次满足该条件之后也是如此。我做错了什么?

    请帮助!

    @Jessica托莱多根据您在这里提供的内容,需要调查的一些事情是确保您的条件考虑到“关闭”操作。所以只发送if Assigned To和Open,而不发送Assigned To和Closed。此外,确保你的触发点是“被触发的时候”,而不是反复提醒对方他们有任务要做。

    很难确定,但希望这能帮助你走上正确的道路。

Yes, this looks to be unexpected, as your workflow should count as a \"sheet change\" and not a sharing invitation. <\/p>
