Hello -

I'm new to WebDir, and having some trouble configuring a Workflow that will allow users to change their job titles, but alert managers to the change. I created a very specific rule for testing, checked the box that was supposed to alert managers instead of the default e-mail address, and made a change - and the e-mail was sent to the default e-mail address. In fact, all changes began generating alerts at that point, regardless of whether the change had anything to do with the workflow rule, so I deleted the rule and started poring over the documentation again.

So what am I missing?

Thanks,

You are on the right track.  Do you have an address in the TO field on the Notification tab?  If so, clear it. 

Ah, okay - testing again with the TO field clear. So far, so good.

So the Notification tab is used specifically for this sort of function and does not need a default address for alerts, etc.?

That is correct.  If you specify a TO address, WebDIr will send a notifiaction about every single change that occurs which is annoying if you don't want it :)
