  • Create notifications for Core Business Suite business units through the Now Assist conversational experience.

    Before you begin

    Ensure that the following are activated:

    Role required: admin, sn_cbs.admin

    Procedure

    1. Navigate to Admin > Admin Home.
    2. On the Core Business Suite Foundation card, select View product overview.
    3. In the Configuration insights section, select Configure.
      The Configure Core Business Suite page opens in the Configuration Console.
    4. Select Notifications under the business unit that you want to configure (for example, Human Resources, Legal, Finance, Health and Safety, Workplace Services, or Source-to-Pay).
    5. Select Configure with Now Assist.

      Now Assist opens the conversational panel, detects the current page context, and invokes the Notification agent.

      Note:
      Now Assist guides you through follow‑up questions and requests confirmation before creating the notification.
    6. Select Create a new notification, or enter a natural‑language prompt.
      Example prompts:
      • Notify the fulfiller when a [BU name] case is assigned
      • Notify the employee when a [BU name] case is resolved or closed
      • Set up a notification for managers when their direct reports open a [BU name] request
    7. Respond to the follow‑up questions provided by Now Assist, such as:
      • The table the notification applies to
      • The trigger criteria (on create, update, or both)
      • The recipients (users, groups, or fields)

      Now Assist processes your responses and prepares the notification details.

    8. Review the notification details.
    9. Select one of the following options:
      • No, looks good to confirm
      • Yes, I’d like to make changes to update the details
    10. If you select Yes, I’d like to make changes, enter the changes when prompted.
      Now Assist revises the notification and presents the updated details.
    11. Review the updated notification details and confirm.
      Now Assist creates the notification and displays a success message.
