Once you create a Processor Notification Group, you can configure Processor Notifications for that Processor Notification Group. Processor Notifications can be configured to send messages when a processing event occurs, such as when the processor is executed, or when a batch is successfully committed.
Processor Notifications are only sent if the processor is run as a scheduled process using the Unity Scheduler service. For more information on configuring a scheduled process, see Creating an Import Processor Unity Scheduler Task.
To configure a Processor Notification:
-
Select an existing Processor Notification Group and click Configuration. The Processor Notification Group Configuration dialog box is displayed.
-
Select a notification event from the Notification Event drop-down list. The following options are available:

To include the percent sign (%) in notification text, you must enter two percent signs (%%) to represent that percent sign. If only one percent sign is entered, the percent sign will not display in the notification text.
