Applying Conditional Alerts to a Dashboard Tile

You can only use conditional alerts on reminder and scorecard tiles. When you apply a conditional alert to a reminder or scorecard tile, the tile icon blinks when the metrics meet your specified conditions for the tile. Only users with an Administrator role or users with edit permissions can apply conditional alerts.

Note:

Conditional alerts are not supported in Redwood theme.

Important:

You need to specify an icon for the reminder or scorecard tile before applying conditional alerts. For more information about specifying a tile icon, see Modifying the Appearance of a Dashboard Tile.

To apply conditional alerts to a tile:

1. Hover over the tile that you want to edit and click the Edit icon.

   The Edit icon is only available if you're an Administrator. If you are not an Administrator but have edit permissions, go to Setup > Dashboard Tiles > Manage Dashboard Tiles and select the tile that you want to edit.

2. On the Dashboard Tile page, under the Alerts subtab, specify values for the following fields:

   1. Blink When – Select a condition that will trigger an alert.

      You can select from the following conditions:

      • Greater Than Threshold

      • Less Than Threshold

      • Greater Than Or Equal Threshold

      • Less Than Or Equal Threshold

   2. Threshold – Enter a threshold value for the tile.

   The combination of the Threshold and Blink When values determine when the icon in the tile blinks.

3. Click Save.
