In SOLIDWORKS PDM Professional, you can define conditional
notifications for transitions.
With the
Add
Conditional Notification option, you can:
- Add predefined conditions to send transition notifications to
users and groups.
- Send notifications dynamically to users based on the value of
data card variables.
To define conditional notifications:
-
In the Administration tool, click a workflow transition.
-
In the transition's Properties dialog box, in the Notifications tab, click Add
Conditional Notification.
-
In the Conditional
Notification dialog box, in the Recipients tab:
-
Click Add
Users/Groups.
-
In the Add
Users/Groups dialog box, select the users or groups to
receive the notification, and click OK.
-
Click Add
Variable to select variables to use their values as
notification recipients.
-
In the Add
Variable dialog box, select the variables, and click
OK.
-
In the Notification
Conditions tab:
-
Select <Click here to add
a condition>.
-
In the conditions list, select a variable or a
condition.
-
Under Comparison, expand the list and select a comparison
operator.
The list of operators depends on the selection you
made in the previous step.
-
Under Value,
enter the value to compare with the variable value.
If you selected User or Group as Variable, select the value from the list.

If you selected a variable as the condition, specify
the data card configuration to search for the variable.
