Card Alert

Overview

Card alert is a real-time monitoring feature based on card data. It sends email notifications when configured conditions are met. Flexible trigger time and validity period settings help users discover data anomalies, monitor key business metrics, and track target achievement.

Prerequisites

To send alerts by email, complete Email Configuration in Management Center > System Integration.

Create an Alert

1. Click ... in the upper-right corner of a card and select Alert to enter the card Alert Settings page.

   

2. Configure the alert. A single card can have up to 20 alerts. By default, a card has no alerts.

   

Configure an Alert

Enable Alert

Select Enable or Disable for the alert.

Alert Name

Create a name for the alert so it can be quickly found in Alert Center. A proper name also helps you quickly understand the issue when receiving an alert email, such as East China store sales did not meet expectations.

Rules

Alert rules determine the conditions for triggering an alert. Guandata supports alert rules in various forms, from simple to complex and from single-condition to compound-condition rules.

• One alert can contain one or more alert rules.
• One alert rule contains conditions for both Dimension and Measure.
• For multiple alert rules, you can select Meet All Rules or Meet Any Rule as the trigger condition.

Trigger Time

Select After Data Update or Scheduled Execution.

• After Data Update: Each time card data is updated, alert checking is triggered. Once alert conditions are met, related users are notified by email.
• Scheduled Execution: Select daily, weekly, or monthly scheduled alert checking. When alert conditions are met, related users are notified by email.
