ACTION_REASSIGN |

PeopleSoft Receivables provides two reports that help you manage action owner assignments:
The Owner Action Status report lists the number of new action assignments by action owner in the reporting period.
For each action, the report provides:
Total number of actions.
The number and percentage of canceled and completed actions for each action owner.
The number and percentage of canceled and completed actions by the Condition Monitor process.
The Condition Status by Owner and Customer report lists the conditions on the customer action list for each action owner by a customer.
The report lists the total number of actions, the number of actions by condition, the number of actions completed or canceled by the operator, and the number of actions completed or canceled by the Condition Monitor process.
The Condition Monitor process triggers workflow processing to send the supervisor of an action owner an e-mail when an action is not completed in the specified number of days in the action template or item action list. The Condition Monitor process also triggers workflow processing to send the AR specialist for an item with an action an e-mail when the action is not completed in the specified number of days in the action template or item action list. The e-mail provides a uniform resource locator (URL) to the Action page, where the supervisor or AR specialist reviews the action and reassigns it, if needed.
PeopleSoft Receivables enables a supervisor to balance the workload of action owners. The Reassign Action page displays a list of action assignments based on your search criteria. If you see that an action owner has a large number of actions, you can reassign selected actions to a different action owner. You can also change the status of an action assigned to an owner to Future, to indicate that actions that are not urgent can be postponed. The system automatically triggers workflow processing to send an e-mail to the new owner with notification of the new action.
Set up action owners to receive e-mail notification.
Use the Action Status by Owner Rpt page (RUN_ARCMCHCK) to define the run parameters for the Owner Action Status report (ARCMCHK).
Use the report to view the number of actions added to the owner's action list for each day of the reporting period specified in the run parameters, and the number completed or canceled.
