Manage Alerts Across AssetSonar User Levels

AssetSonar has three different user levels:

  1. Administrators
  2. Supervisors
  3. Staff Users 

The types of alerts vary at each user level and can be either ‘an email sent for each subscribed event’ or ‘a daily digest that summarizes all the events for the day’.

Staff users receive email alerts for actions they’ve subscribed to only when they’re involved in the action.

Alerts for Account Owner/administrators:

Learn more about the types of alerts that Account Owners, Admins and Staff Users receive.

Under the email alerts, a staff user can also customize these alerts based on groups and locations (see image below). You can receive alerts specific to these groups and locations.

Note: Admins and staff users can filter what kind of alerts they want to receive from their accounts. They can also subscribe to our regular newsletters.

Customized Email Alerts: Administrators can also customize the email templates for alert types from More → Alerts → Alert type (e.g. Check-in) → Add New.

You can then customize the template for ‘Check-in’ alerts. Insert placeholders containing dynamic data such as asset name, checked in by, custom attribute values, and more.

 Note: Customization does not apply to mail digests.
