Email Notifications and Certification

When a UCI Employee needs to approve a KFS eDoc, an email will be sent letting the approver know action needs to be taken. (This is if their Action List preferences have been set to receive immediate notifications, which is by default). The email includes a link to the approver's action list and a link to the approver's action list preferences.

In order to access KFS using this link the user must be using a UCI Internet connection (on-site or Virtual Private Network (VPN)).

The KFS approval notification email is sent to approvers when an eDoc requires their attention. It includes direct links to the approver's Action List and Action List Preferences. Note that this email requires a UCI Internet connection or VPN to access KFS, and action list emails cannot be resent.

Action list emails cannot be resent.

If an approver doesn't know if they have a document to approve or not, they can look in their action list. By going to portal.uci.edu > Finances/KFS > Action List, approvers can view all documents that require their approval.
