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
