1. How to use the Energy Point System?

To start using this system you need to create some Energy Point Rules (see section 3. How to create Energy Point Rules?) so that users can get energy points based on their activities.

2. What are Energy Point Rules?

Energy Point Rules store the information about the activity and the value of points to be allocated.

Energy Point Rule has the following fields:

Field

Description

Reference DocType

Document Type you want to apply the rule on eg. Task, ToDo, Issue, etc.

For Document Event

Options: Save, Submit, Cancel, and Custom.
Note: If "Custom" option is selected then the "Conditions" field becomes mandatory

Points

Points to be allocated.

Allot Points To Assigned Users

If checked, users assigned to the reference document will get respective points. eg. If users Santosh and Albert are assigned to a particular task then both of them will get points when the document fulfills the condition

User Field

Field from which user will be selected eg. Resolved By, Modified By, Owner, etc. can be used. If Modified By is selected, the last person to satisfy the doc condition will get the points.

Multiplier Field

Field which stores value for the multiplier. This field can take numeric and decimal values which will be multiplied with points defined in the rule.
For example: 2 (multiplier) * 10 (points set in the rule) = 20 points

Condition

Condition for the point allocation.
eg. doc.status == 'Closed'
The above condition will check whether the status field in the document is 'Closed' and if yes then the points will be allocated to the user.

Apply Only Once

The rule will be applied only once per document.
