When creating an alert from a dashboard, you must choose the condition for which you want to be alerted. For example, you want to create an alert for when the number of orders for the year drops below the target. The target number is defined in the KPI. The condition, in this example, is "drops below the target". Condition options for creating an alert are described in the following table.
Condition | Description |
---|---|
Above range | The value for the condition is above a KPI range. When you select this condition, you also select a range from the Value column of the conditions table. |
Below range | The value for the condition is below a KPI range. When you select this condition, you also select a range from the Value column of the conditions table. It works similarly to the "Above range" condition. |
Leaves range high | The value for the condition rises out a given range. When you select this condition, you also select a range from the Value column of the conditions table. |
Leaves range low | The value for the condition falls out of a given range. When you select this condition, you also select a range from the Value column of the conditions table. |
Above equals | The value for the condition is above or equal to the value that you define. When you select this condition, you must specify a value in the Value column of the conditions table. |
Below equals | The value for the condition is below or equal to the value that you define. When you select this condition, you must specify a value in the Value column of the conditions table. |
Equals | The value for the condition is equal to the value that you define. When you select this condition, you must specify a value in the Value column of the conditions table. |
Above target | The value for the condition is above the KPI target. The target value for the KPI is automatically displayed in the Value column of the conditions table. |
Below target | The value for the condition is below the KPI target. The target value for the KPI is automatically displayed in the Value column of the conditions table. |
Equals target | The value for the condition is equal to the KPI target. The target value for the KPI is automatically displayed in the Value column of the conditions table. |
Above equals target | The value for the condition
is above or equal to the KPI target. The target value for the KPI
is automatically displayed in the Value column
of the conditions table An example of this condition when the KPI target value is 46, could be: "Create an alert when the number of problems for the year is above or equal to 46". |
Below equals target | The value for the condition is below or equal to the KPI target. The target value for the KPI is automatically displayed in the Value column of the conditions table. |
