End Query above the line

What this will do:

If | Status | is | "New"

AND | Category | is | Human Resources::Employee Termination

AND | Comments | does not contain | "HR has been notified about employee termination."

THEN it will send out the email.

Check the box to "Append comment to ticket"

    Add comment: HR has been notified about employee termination.

Check the box to "Email each recipient in the query results"

   Subject: Your subject         Column containing email addresses: HREMAIL

Body: configure your email with the info they need to know

Uncheck "Run update query"

Set it to "on Ticket Save"

Hope this is helpful.
