How to: Calculate Alerts

To calculate alerts

You can calculate alerts with a Scheduler Job or manually.

To calculate alerts with a Scheduler Job

Click the icon, enter Scheduler Job List, and select the relevant link.
Create a new Scheduler job by clicking the New action, or select an existing job.
In the General FastTab, define the Job ID and Description.
In the Object Setup FastTab, select Codeunit in the Object Type field and assign the Object No. with 10016606 (LSC ACI Alert Mgmt.).
Go to the Schedule Details FastTab, define the date and time for when you would like the job to be executed. This includes Time Units, Time Between Check, Next Check Date, and Next Check Time.
Based on the scheduled date, time, and frequency, the system will calculate the alerts for all KPIs according to their Alert Rules.

To calculate alerts manually

Click the icon, enter Actionable Insights KPIs, and select the relevant link.
Select an Actionable Insights KPI, and click the Calculate Alerts action.
Alternatively, click the Manage - View action to open the relevant Actionable Insights KPI Card, and click the Calculate Alerts action.
The system will calculate the alerts for the selected KPI according to its Alert Rules.

An alert will be created for a signal when its KPI Value fulfills the threshold as defined in the Alert Rule.

The Alert calculation is incremental where the system will check if an alert needs to be raised for the newly created signals. The system will pick up from the signal where the last alert calculation was performed.

You can view calculated alerts from:
