Szenario
To reduce errors and complaints with payroll processing, the Human Resources department allows employees of TGB to enroll in direct deposit. When employees enroll, their paycheck is automatically deposited into their checking account when the accounting department processes the company payroll.
To automate payroll processing and avoid both case processing delays and performance impacts during peak business hours, add a step to the case life cycle to queue the creation and sending of an email once the user completes a Payroll Setup case.
The following table provides the credentials you need to complete the challenge.
