Select Recipients

You can select recipients in the following ways:

  • Enter the recipient's name in the To field. As you type, Dayforce shows people whose first or last name matches what you’ve entered. The search results show each person with the name of their job to help you tell the difference between people with similar names.
  • Use the People Finder to filter for recipients:
  • People finder slide-out panel.

To select recipients using the people finder:

  1. Click Compose. If you have access to send more than one type of message, select the type that you want to send in the drop-down list.
  2. Click To. The People Finder opens.
  3. In the Filters tab, enter one or more criteria to filter the list of people.
  4. Select the checkboxes beside the names of the people that you want to send the message to.
  5. Click Add People to add the selected employees or click All to add all of the listed employees to your recipient list. You can keep filtering the list of people and selecting the checkboxes until you’ve found all of the recipients.
  6. (Optional) Click Save Filter to save the filter criteria that you’ve applied so that you can use them for another message in the future.
  7. Go to the People tab and review the list of recipients that you’ve added. You can remove people from the recipients list by clicking the X next to their name.
  8. Click Select People to add the selected people as recipients for the message. Click Clear Recipient Selection above the list to remove all recipients.
