Receiving Approval Notifications

Push notifications are also supported for approvals; push notifications are a framework delivered in PeopleTools.

The Notifications button in the Oracle banner shows a counter for new push notifications. Note that the counter disappears once you view the notification list. Each notification link takes you directly to the Approval Header Detail page for items awaiting your approval. Push notifications are available in the classic interface and PeopleSoft Fluid User Interface as of PeopleTools 8.54.

Use the Notifications button to view push notifications for approvals and other workflow items that need the current user’s attention, based on user ID.

Navigation:

Select the Notifications button in the Fluid banner at the top of the page to view actions and alerts.

This example illustrates the Notifications button as displayed on a desktop (LFF). The counter shows the number of new push notifications.

In the classic interface, a link on the Actions tab directly accesses the payment, credit card, maintenance, or draft worksheet page. When you select an action item link while in the PeopleSoft Fluid User Interface, the system opens the Pending Approvals page in PeopleSoft Fluid User Interface.
