Even if an alert is not delivered either by email or text, it will still be visible on the GUI.

The alert subscription page is divided in several blocks:

For each creditor entity, the user can edit his subscriptions from the “Status of your email subscriptions” block. For each ticked row, an alert will be delivered. Hitting [Validate] applies the changes.

At the bottom of the block is displayed a reminder of the email account and phone number to which the alerts will be sent.

The preferred channel is defined in the organizational parameters. Alerts can be sent by text message or email.

image

Global alerts

Instead of sending a notification for each individual generated alert, only one global notification per alert type is to be sent. The global notification contains a summary of how many alerts were generated for that alert type, and the detail of the first 10 alerts.

If less than 10 alerts are generated for a given type, they will all be included in the global notification.

If only one alert is generated for a given type, it will be sent “as is”, without using the global alert template

For example, if a file is uploaded containing 200 transactions out of which 100 transactions are created in OBSOLETE status and another 100 transactions are created in WAITING status, then a total of two emails will be sent to the specified email addresses, containing information about the 10 first alerts (maximum number of alerts displayed in the email) instances of each alert type.
