Alert Criteria

Field Description
Selected Projects Select the projects for which you want to send the alert.
Send Every X Days Enter the number of days that you want the alert repeated. You must enter a number greater than zero (0).
Minimum Amount Any invoices over this amount, or any sum of invoices over this amount (when grouped by project or client), are included in the alert. The value that you enter here is used with the Send when x is between x and x days old field to determine if an invoice or grouped set of invoices is "late."
Send When X Is Between X And X Days Old Use Send When to create rules that examine invoices grouped by invoice, client, or project. In this way, you can be alerted when invoices grouped and summed by client, for example, fall between 20 and 60 days old and exceed a specific amount of money.

Use Is Between X And X Days Old to specify the age range of invoices, either ungrouped, or grouped and summed by client or project. Any invoice aged between these two values is included in the alert.

Report in If you use multiple currencies, select Billing Currency or Project Currency to specify the currency in which amounts display.
