Condition Step

Task Setup >

 

 

 

 

MyAssistant Tasks monitor for specific situations in Sage using a Condition. Conditions are one or more logical statements that are true or false. For example:

To See

MyAssistant Condition

Jobs that are over-budget

JC Jobs with a Total Estimate greater than the Job-to-date Costs

Subcontracts that are not signed

JC Commitments where the "Signed Received" box isn't checked and the Vendor's Type is "Subcontractor"

AP Invoices Coded to a JC Cost Code without an Estimate

AP Invoice Distributions where the associated JC Cost Code's "Total Estimate" is zero

PR Employees paid this pay period

PR Checks with a period end date in the last week and a Direct Deposit amount greater than zero

 

When a Task runs, the Condition is applied to the Sage database and creates a list of Sage records. This list can be:

▪Included in the body of the email

▪Used to fill in a spreadsheet template, or

▪Used as a mailing list to send each recipient their reports or documents

Condition Parts

Each line of a Condition contains the following pieces:

Sage field/MyAssistant Formula: The information from a Sage field or a MyAssistant Formula. Examples include:

▪Employee's Email Address

▪Invoice Date on an AR Invoice

▪Last time a Job was billed
 

Operands: Used to compare the different values on a line. Examples include:

▪Equals 

▪Is more than specified days ago

▪Is greater than

▪Contains

▪Is blank

Related: All available operands
 

A specified value, Sage field or Formula: This is what's compared against the Sage field or MyAssistant Formula value in the line. This could be:

▪$4,000

▪30 days

▪Accounting Date on an Invoice

▪Percent a category is over-budget

 

When put together, Condition rows look like the following:

 

Tip: When running a Task to send each person only their information, the Condition will also help determine who should be emailed and who shouldn't. Click here for more information.
