Check-Ins, self-assessments and policy forms are all sent to employees from intelliHR via email. From time to time, it is almost inevitable that team members may reach out to let you know that they have not received notification of any tasks by email. This is where the email log will have its greatest value to you as a system administrator. The email log provides an audit of all emails that have been sent from intelliHR, where they were sent to and at what time. This article is designed to outline how the email log can be used and by who.
