Use these fields and options to set up an alert to notify a resource and the resource's
supervisor when the resource is assigned to a
project.
| Field | Description |
|---|
| Alert Rule Name
|
This field displays the names of existing alert rules; or, if you are creating a new alert rule, enter the name of the rule (for example,
Resources for All Boston-Based
Projects). You can change the name of an existing rule; however, all alert rule names must be unique.
|
| Enabled
|
Select this option to enable the rule. When the alert is Active, this feature allows you to enable only selected rules, without having to delete any unwanted rules. In other words, if the alert is Active, then
Deltek will run any one of its Enabled rules. If the alert is not Active, then
Deltek will not run any of its rules, even if rules are Enabled.
|
| Languages
|
This column displays if you use the
Deltek Multilingual application. Use this column to select the language for this alert. Only
employees with the selected language receive the alert. However, if you leave this column blank, all
employees receive this alert regardless of their designated language. For example, if you create an email alert for English US and English UK, then only the users that have English US or English UK in the
Language field in the
Employees hub receive that message. The system administrator must set up a separate alert rule for Spanish
employees to receive a message in Spanish. The
Language field displays
<languages selected> if any languages are selected.
|
| The Plan: Include Utilization
|
In the alert configuration, if
Include Utilization is selected for the Plan, only plans for which the
Include in Utilization and
Project Reports option (located on the Plan’s General tab) is selected will be included in the alert. If the
Include Utilization option is not selected, then changes made to any plan will be included in the alert.
