Working with Alerts
During the course of running a business process, you may encounter roadblocks that affect your progress. For example, you may encounter a hardware or system failure, or software or data issues. You can create an alert to indicate problems in the process, attach it to a task or schedule, and assign a quick workflow to deal with it. You can approve or reject alerts for which you're assigned as the Approver.
You can view alerts from tasks on the Worklist, or from the Alerts List, and drill into alerts to display the alert details. You can edit and delete alerts that you no longer need.
