Set Up Alert Polling Interval

Activity alerts remind you of things such as calendar events or tasks to be assigned or approved. The polling interval that you specify determines how often, in seconds, alert activity is checked.

The polling interval that you set up in General System Settings applies only to CRM activity alerts. For all other alerts, the polling interval is system-set.

To set up the alert polling interval:

  1. In the Navigation pane, select Settings > General > Options.
  2. In the Activity Settings section of the Options form, use the Number of seconds to poll for alerts check box to specify the polling interval, in seconds.
    The value that you enter must be greater than 0. Deltek recommends a value of at least 60.
  3. Click Save.
