Configuring activity rules

Configure an inactivity rule to generate an alert when no data is captured for a period of time.

Before you begin

Create notification contacts for inactivity alerts in all locations where you want issues to be assigned to a specific user. For more information, see Setting up notification contacts.

Procedure

  1. From the main menu, click Manage > Accounts to open the Accounts grid.
  2. Select an account in the Accounts grid and click More > Inactivity Rules to open the Inactivity Rules grid.
    You can also open the Inactivity Rules grid by selecting More > Inactivity Rules from an Accounts Summary page.
  3. Click Create New to add a new rule and complete these fields:
    1. Add an event name, for example, Account inactivity alert.
    2. Review the account field. It is the name of the account that you are creating the rule for and is not editable.
    3. Set a status for the alert.
    4. Configure when to generate the alert.
      Set the number of days, weeks or months from the last date of data for the account before a data anomaly alert is created.
    5. Click Save.

Results

The inactivity alert rule is added to the Inactivity Rules grid.
