TABLE OF CONTENTS


Alerts are “banners” that appear at the top of every page within a Case’s profile. You can use Alerts to post important or “sticky-note” types of information. 

Alerts can optionally be set to automatically appear and disappear on certain dates. They can also be set to appear indefinitely or until a User manually removes the alert. It is possible to have more than one alert per case.
