Alerts
If you would like to know whenever a change occurs
in the Shared Documents library or to a particular file in the Shared
Documents library, then you can create an alert for it. (An alert is
an e-mail notification that summarizes the change.)
You may select whether to receive alerts for
- All changes (added items, changed items, and deleted items)
- Added items only
- Changed items only
- Deleted items only
You may also select how often to receive alerts:
- Immediately (Select this option if you want to receive the alert
as soon as the change occurs.)
- Daily (Select this option to receive summarized alerts once a
day.)
- Weekly (Select this option to receive summarized alerts once a
week.)
