HDL – Send notifications when loading participants in performance document

Whenever doing mass upload of participants in a performance document, there may be a need to send a notification message to the participants.

To load participants, you need to use PerfDocComplete -> Participant business object. However, if the data is loaded without using “Message” attribute in Participant business object, no message will be sent to the participants.

The notifications are determined by the setting at ‘Configure HCM Data Loader’ task under setup and maintenance. Under Business objects, choose “Performance Document” and you can see the process named – Send Notifications to Mass Loaded Participants.

But again to make this setting work, message attribute must be included in participant object.
