Subscribing to alerts for an object

About this task

You can override default settings within a plan, program, project, or project requestList, On-demand Campaign, or Corporate Campaign even if you are not an administrator, which allows you to control the alerts that each object owner and participant receives. However, if there are permissions that are configured for any of the tabs of a project or requestList, On-demand Campaign, or Corporate Campaign, the system filters alerts appropriately. For example, alerts about attachments are not sent to users who do not have access to a project's Attachments tab.

Procedure

  1. Open the object for which you want to change alert subscriptions.
  2. Click the Communicate icon (Dialog balloon with zero image) and select Subscribe to Alerts from the drop-down list.
  3. From the list of alerts, select the check boxes that correspond to the alert that you want to change. You can set or clear alert subscriptions for each type of user, Owner, or Participant. The possible entries are as follows:
    • Check mark: indicates that the user receives the alert or alarm
    • Blank: indicates that the user does not receive the alert or alarm
    • n/a: indicates that you did not specify team membersusers for this access level (for example, Program Participant) when you created the object. After you add users with the corresponding access level, you can set alerts for that access level.
  4. Click Accept to save your changes or Cancel to leave the alert settings as they were.
