Strategy ONE

Receiving alerts when data meets certain conditions: Push notifications

You can configure MicroStrategy to send an alert to your iPhone when a metric on a report meets a specific condition. For example, you can choose to receive an alert if the Profit data in a report drops below $50,000. These alerts are called push notifications, and can be received even if the MicroStrategy iPhone application is not running. For information on setting up push notifications, see the Strategy Mobile Administration Help.

Enabling and disabling alerts

You enable or disable alerts using your iPhone's Settings screen.
