When an assignment is triggered, a new entry will be added to Your Assignments on the home page for the relevant recipient.
You can notify users about their open assignments via email. When building a workflow with a Form activity, you can select an option to send an email each time a new form assignment is triggered. You can also enable an option to send a daily email to users with outstanding workflow assignments, summarizing their open tasks.
Send notifications for each assignment
When you add a new Form activity to a workflow, there is an option to enable email notification as part of the Form step.
If you enable this option, an email notification will be sent to the user or users listed, with a link to complete the form. An email is sent each time a new form assignment is triggered.
Send workflow summary emails
You can group a user's open assignments into a workflow summary email, which is sent on the days of the week that you select.
To configure this option, go to the Settings tab on the Workflow page.
When this setting is enabled, a summary email is sent to users who have outstanding workflow assignments, on the selected days. The summary email details any outstanding workflow assignments that were generated from a Form step in a workflow. The subject of a workflow summary email indicates how many items require attention, and the body of the email lists the open assignments by workflow, version and step.
