    If a person is a member of more than one group that is
    designated to get emails, they will receive the same email for
    each group to which they are assigned that is executing the
    policy. There is no way around that functionality.

    Are people getting the emails members of more than one
    group? With depatures, people that are members of both the
    S-1 group and the Company group, as well as the evaluations
    clerk, will receive emails. If a person is a member of more
    than one of those, they will receive that number of emails.

    Users are members of S1 personnel only I have no Company
    group. If I remember correctly I was told ONLY the S1 group
    received email

    For the Depart policies, email is sent when the person being
    departed is an E5 or above. When the E5 test is true, an
    email is sent to the S-1 group, and also to any users that
    have the Personnel Manager-->Evaluations task.

    People with Evaluations task are presumed to be an
    evaluations clerk, and they need to know when officers are
    departing a facility so they can close out any open
    evaluations for the person.

    The only thing that I can think of that would cause the two
    emails is that the users have either the Evaluations task or
    Owner task of the Personnel Manager, or are members of the
    Adminstrator group.

    Is this the case for the users?

    As for the S1 group being the only ones to receive email, this
    is true for the previous bug submitted related to adding a
    new personnel record. Departures is a slightly different policy.

    Trying an experiment of modifying bug titles to be more
    descriptive in attempt to make bugs easier to identify for
    other users. Don't mind me.

    I can depart a contractor and get this email. Basicly anyone I
    have tried to depart we have recived this email.

    Execute this query and post the results back to the bug
    thread.

    select ObjectID, Task, [Description] from security_task where
    taskid = '{2D039479-2CD5-4EBE-A626-AF0C79050987}'

    This SHOULD return the "S1 Group" task. This is the group
    that is being emailed when the depart personnel policy is
    called.

    Also, check your Units table. If there is a GroupID column,
    execute this query and paste the results into this bug thread.

    select Unit, GroupID from units

    Any groups defined in the GroupID column would also be
    emailed on the depart feature.

    Finally, check to see who is assigned to the Evaluations task
    in the Personnel Manager object in the security wizard. Any
    groups assigned to this object/task combination would be
    emailed on a departure.

    taskid = '{2D039479-2CD5-4EBE-A626-AF0C79050987}'
    returned one row S1 Group

    Select Unit, GroupID from units
    returned all nulls for groupid

    I have updated everyones email (added a 1 at the end of
    there email address) so they will not be getting email until the
    problem is fixed. Was told to wait until the update is done to
    start working on this. Was told the policy editor is going to
    have a lot of updates and being there is not a lot of
    documentation as well.
