Can staff members create their own Alerts?

Yes, staff members can create their own alerts, if they are assigned the permission to do so. In order for setting that permission, use your Manager Group.user ID and do the following:

• Logon to Web ViewPoint Enterprise, navigate to Admin -> Users.
• You can Add or Edit Users and their Permissions here. Simply go to the Admin section of the Add/Edit User popup. Select Yes or No to control whether the user can forward Alert notification, or set automated response using the “AutoOp” feature. Click on the Save button when done.
• All Alerts set by Staff user are Public.
