Address Book

Instant Alert Address Book is the component used to add, edit and delete the following:

Contacts and Contact Details

Contacts are the people to which the details of any issues need to be communicated. Contacts may be internal or may belong to third party organizations. A comprehensive set of fields is available into which detailed information regarding the contact can be entered.

This information must be entered manually for each contact and a default message type (SMS or email) must be specified.

TIP: The default message type can be overwritten by the message type selected from within Enterprise Server Options | Email/SMS Defaults.

Broadcast Groups

A broadcast group is a team of people who have an interest in a specific function or routine and allows all members of the group to receive instant email notifications or SMS for any issues that arise.

Call Schedules

A call schedule, often called a rota or roster, is a list of employees with responsibilities for a given time period. A call schedule is a method of ensuring that the correct person is contacted at the right time, in the event of an alert being raised.
