Managing Alerts

Objectives

After completing this lesson, you will be able to:
  • Describe how to monitor alerts on the alert list.
  • Explain how to manage alert settings.

The Alert List

The alert list displays all of the unarchived alerts for incident types and suppliers that you follow. It shows summary information and allows you to open detailed information for each alert. You can filter the alert list by supplier, severity, incident type, date range, location, and other criteria.

Alert summaries

  • Include the incident type, the supplier's company name, location information, an indicator for whether or not you have flagged the alert, the date of the last alert included in the summary, whether the incident is positive or negative, and the number of alerts represented by the summary
  • If a supplier has alerts for more than one incident type, they are listed in separate lines on the list

Alert details

  • Include a link to the information that triggered the alert, its source, its language, and the incident type
    • Alerts on debarments include a link to the US government's Excluded Parties List System
  • If a new alert with the same incident type appears within seven days of the most recent previous alert for a supplier, it is added to the current alert summary
    • If more than seven days go by and a new alert of the same incident type appears, it is added to a new alert summary

Alert Languages

A graphic of the world map is displayed.

The alert list may present articles in the following languages:

  • Chinese (simplified)
  • English
  • French
  • German
  • Italian
  • Korean
  • Portuguese
  • Russian
  • Spanish
