PDF Package and Send Email

Overview

This action allows a super user to configure an action on a rule where the candidates application form, resume, assessment form or a form attachment can be packaged and then emailed to relevant parties.  This functionality can be configured throughout an assessment process, at various stages.  System users that have access to create/edit assessment process templates will automatically have access to this new feature.

Example: The payroll team require all uploaded superannuation documentation for new starters as soon as they have completed their onboarding information.  A PDF Package and Email Action can be configured to trigger on completion of the onboarding step.  The Action will automatically package the superannuation documentation for the new starter and email it directly to the payroll team.
