Product Alerts

Product alerts are the most specific of all of our available alerts. They're applied to only one product at a time. This means that a user will only see the alert if that specific product shows up in a search. These types of alerts are best used to note if a hauler is low on any specific size of dumpster or if there is some sort of important debris alerts for a given size and waste type.

Create an Alert

  1. Navigate to a hauler's page - this will list all the current haulers in the application
  2. Search or select a hauler - hauler's are listed in alphabetical order so a search may be required
  3. Select a service area from the list on the left - the service areas are differentiated by color
  4. Select the 'Pricing' tab - it should appear to the left of the 'Alerts' tab
  5. Hit 'Edit' on the product to add an alert to - this will display the pricing form for that product
  6. Hit 'Add Product Alert' - this can be found just below the save, edit, and delete buttons for the pricing record.
  7. Fill out alert text and apply any necessary expiration or checkback dates
  8. Hit 'save' - this will save the alert and make it available in searches

Canned Alert Text

The product alert form will include the option to select from some predefined text that covers typical inventory situations that may need to be alerted. You'll see these at the very top of the alert form.
