Setting a Context for the Active Workspace


Setting a context

Context limitations

Manager Alerts, Workspaces, and Widgets


Manager alert types

timecard exceptions– Request Manager Alert — Lists the number of pending requests

generated from Request Manager– Time-Off Request Alert — Lists the number of weeks for which there

are time-off requests– Metrics Alert — Lists the number of times that a defined productivity

metrics target has not been met– Schedule Alert — Lists the number of open shifts for the pre-defined

time period

Sequential wizards

• Some wizards are sequential—you must perform the steps in a strict sequence


Initial Step

Getting helpful info

Accessing other WFC pages
