The batch job for Probation Review Notifications requires the following to be filled out on the Probation Review record, within one week before the probation review date:

  • The Reviewer field must be populated on the Probation Record.

  • The Probation Review Status must be Awaiting Outcome.

If these fields are not populated within the week preceding the probation review date, then the record will not be processed, and a reminder will not be received.

Check the status

You can check to see if a probation reviewer has been assigned and that the status of the probation review is awaiting outcome by following these steps.

  1. Click Employees, then Employees, then click Career History.

  2. Select the affected employee.

  3. Click the Probation Period tab and then the probation period record.

If you believe these fields were both populated within the 1 week window, then an audit will need to be run on the record to check the dates in which the information was added to the system.
