SharePoint Alert offers Email-alert function but cannot fully meet users’ demands. SharePoint Alert Boost greatly extends default SharePoint Alert function and make the application of Alert more convenient. The new features are as follows:
1. Set alert conditions;
2. Customize email content;
3. Insert the columns into the alerts
4. Send email to non-SharePoint users or groups
5. Send email to the task-related users
6. Send item attachment as email attachment
Now, let’s turn to the following sample:
Director Henry assigned Tom a task for which the due date is 15th July. Meanwhile, a copy of description document is added to task item. When the task is completed, Henry would have a check. Email notification will be sent to task-related persons once meeting the following conditions:
Firstly, as long as Henry creates the task item, Email will be sent to Tom;
Secondly, send the item attachment as the email attachment
Thirdly, on the due date, a piece of Email will report to Henry;
Fourthly, Henry will receive a mail when the task is completed;
SharePoint Alert cannot achieve above requests, while SharePoint Alert Boost does work.
I will write and post the next part tomorrow or later.
