Alerts in InSite

Two separate overview templates are available in InSite. The only alerts shown are the ones that are intended for the user who is logged on.

Description

In InSite the following views are available for alerts:

• My alerts

  Here, a user who is logged on can see only those alerts that are intended for him and that are still unread.

• All alerts

Any expired alerts are not shown.
