Conditional Alerts for Lists

Asked By: Dontae Rosa Date: Jan 16, 2005 Category: Sharepoint Views: 345

Is anyone aware of a technique to implement conditional alerts for
lists? I would like a user to be able to choose alerts according to
metadata values in list items. For instance, if someone completes a
customer satisfaction survey, I want them to able to create an alert
for negative extreme values for a particular response.

I'm aware of programmatic event-handling for document libraries, but I
don't think this applies to lists.

this can be done on SPS lists and libraries but not WSS. When setting up an
alert, click on the little "Advanced Settings" link at the bottom. you can set
filters there.

Using conventional lists I think you will have to go further into
programming.

If you use document libraries, you can configure a process in our workflow
product, Procx, to send alerts based on rules from columns in the doc
library.

This is built-in functionality; I think you'd have to write a custom
program that runs on a schedule.
