Restrict Case Users from Submitting Benefits and Payroll Cases

Navigation:The UKG Community

    Access Information section with a callout box around the Available and Chosen lists.
  5. Select Save.

    The applied restrictions will prevent the contact from being able to select Payroll and/or Benefits options as part of the Job Category picklist options. For example, if Payroll is selected as a Chosen restriction, the contact will not have the Payroll option from the Create a Case form, therefore restricting the Product Solution options that can be selected.
