Schedule Notifications for Concurrent Sessions

To configure a delivery schedule that informs employees in a concurrent bidding session when their submission rounds begin and end:

1. In the Messages section in the Notifications Schedules tab, click Add.
2. In the Number of Days field, enter a numerical value. This value represents one of the following:
   • If you’re configuring the Bidding Round Start notification, this value represents the number of days before or after a bidding round starts that employees receive the notification, depending on how you configure the Selection setting (described in step 3).
   • If you’re configuring the Bidding Round End notification, this value represents the number of days before a bidding round ends that employees receive the notification.
3. In the Selection drop-down list, specify when the notification is sent to employees:
   • If you’re configuring the Bidding Round Start notification, select one of the following options:
     • Days before bidding round starts: Dayforce delivers the notification to employees a configurable number of days before the bidding round starts.
     • Days after bidding round starts: Dayforce delivers the notification to employees a configurable number of days after the bidding round starts.
   • If you’re configuring the Bidding Round End notification, select the following option:
     • Days before bidding round ends: Dayforce delivers the notification to employees a configurable number of days before the bidding round ends.
4. The Number of Days and Selection settings work in tandem. The number of days that you specify and the selection that you make in the drop-down list dictate the notification’s delivery schedule. For example, enter 2 in the Number of Days field and select Days before bidding round starts in the Selection drop-down list for the Bidding Round Start notification. With this configuration, Dayforce sends the notification to employees two days before the bidding round’s scheduled start time.
4. Click Save.

You can configure Dayforce to send notifications on multiple days or both before and after the bidding round starts, depending on your requirements.
