About 7-6 Alerts Manager

Alert Queries tab

Alert queries allow you to create a query that is executed automatically every day at a specified time, with the defined results returned only when the query’s conditions are met. You can choose to receive the alert notifications for any particular custom alert by email, dashboard or both.

You can:

  • Create new custom alerts
  • Import alerts
  • Edit existing custom alerts
  • Copy an existing custom alert
  • Delete a custom alert
  • Activate a custom alert (if there any existing custom alerts that are disabled or snoozed)
  • Snooze a custom alert
  • Disable a custom alert

Process my alert queries every day at

If you have not previously selected a value, the list box appears without any text. Otherwise, the previously selected time is displayed when the window opens. A value is required if there are any custom alerts, or there are any program alerts that are set to Email for the Alert Method.

  • When required, the label text is blue; otherwise it’s black.
  • The time must be selected from the list; there is no ability to directly enter or a time or further modify a selected time.
  • If the user is currently using a machine that’s different from the machine on which they previously saved the time, the 7-9 window opens with this label and list box disabled and a message informs the user that they can do anything else in this window except change the processing time.

When the 7-9 window is closed and the selected time has changed, the program saves the changes to the windows Task Scheduler and the database.

Program Warning Subscriptions tab

Program warnings are defined as warnings that are given to the user during processing that the user chooses to ignore. Program warning subscriptions allow you to subscribe to be alerted when these program warnings are ignored and the transaction is processed anyway. You can choose to be notified for the particular program warning by email or dashboard.

Events Log

The event log provides detailed insight into the daily processing of the custom alerts. You can view the log for all custom alerts or view the log for a period of days (7 days, 14 days, and 30 days).
