Alerts Form
Use this form to set up alerts that are triggered by key planning events, such as the creation of a new plan, addition of a work breakdown structure (WBS) element to a plan, assignment of a resource, and so on. For a given type of alert, you can define multiple rules that specify the criteria for triggering the alert, who receives the alert, and how it is delivered to the recipients.
If Vantagepoint is set up to have multiple companies, these alerts apply to all companies. You cannot set up different alerts for different companies.
For descriptions of the available alerts, see Planning Alerts.
