If you are ready to work on an event alert, you can assign that
event alert to yourself. After you assign an event alert to yourself, that
alert only appears in your Alert Summary window. The
alert no longer appears in the Alert Summary windows
of other analysts.
Procedure:
- In the Visualizer, in the Alert Summary window,
click on the event alert summary containing the event that you want to update.
- From the results section (bottom) of the Alert Summary window,
double-click the event alert that you want to assign to yourself.
- In the Event Alert window, click the Set
Status button.
- In the Set Status dialog, do the following:
- From the Select the action you want to perform drop-down
list, select Set Status. If you do not see
the status that you want to select, contact your system administrator to arrange
to configure the status. A corresponding activity code displays
in the Select Activity Code drop-down list.
- Select another the activity code, if desired, from the Select
Activity Code drop-down list. If you do not see the
activity code that you want to select, contact your system administrator to
arrange to configure the activity code.
- Enter comments or notes in the Comments text
box, if you want to. For example, you might choose to enter comments
about why you are changing the status, or include notes about your analysis
of this event alert.
- Click the OK button to save your changes.
The Visualizer applies a status value of assigned to the event alert.
Once you assign an event alert to yourself, that alert only appears in your Alert
Summary window and no longer appears in the Alert Summary window
of any other analyst.
