Alexander Homer Posted September 14 Share Posted September 14 If you’re familiar with scheduling in ReportCaster, then you probably know that there are a lot of recurrence options you can use to send your content at regular intervals with a variety of time-based options. For example, you can send your content every week, every 2 weeks, or every Tuesday and Friday. What you may not know, however, is that you can also schedule those items to send more dynamically using an alert. An alert tests for certain conditions in a report, so when a schedule running against that alert is run, if the alert test fails, then the report won’t send. This allows you to schedule your content to send more dynamically based on changes or key thresholds in your data, so when you receive an email or other distribution from ReportCaster, you know it has new or important information in it. The following video shows how to create an alert test based on a filtered report, how to schedule the alert, and what happens if the alert passes or fails. Have you tried alerts before in other scenarios, or do you have questions about the capabilities of alerts? Let us know in the comments! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
