M ANAGING A LERTS  D ISCUSSION

Alerts are message boxes that contain information from a Microsoft Office compatible alert source, such as a SharePoint technology product. You can manage alerts from these sources and create new ones using the Manage Alerts page in the Rules and Alerts dialog box.

Alerts can inform you when the contents of a SharePoint web site change. The contents can include shared documents, announcements, contacts, events, links, tasks, and discussion topics. Send an alert when an item changes or a new item is added. For example, create an alert to let you know when a change was made to a particular document in a shared library.

When creating a new alert, enter the web site address for the alert source. Alternatively, choose a source that is currently sending you alerts or a source you have visited. Selecting the source opens it in your browser where you can create the desired alert.
