AE Program for Sending Notifications

The system delivers the HCSC_NOTIFY AE program to process notifications. It can be invoked from two places:

• From the Publish Notification Page where users compose and send notifications.

  Clicking the Send button submits the AE program to Process Scheduler instantly.

• From the Schedule Notification Process run control page (HCSC_NOTIF_RC).

When the program is invoked, it:

• Resolves the final list of recipients from the selected recipient type.

• Sends the notification as configured to the list of recipients identified.

It is recommended that the HCSC_NOTIFY AE program be run daily to process any recurring and pending notifications. To facilitate scheduling, the system delivers the HCSC_ANN job, which includes the HCSC_NOTIFY program. Administrators can set the recurrence of this job to daily so that recurring and pending notifications can be processed accordingly.
