Sam is the Customer Service Manager in Phoenix looking after the service requests in his area. His team uses Dynamics 365 for creating Cases or tickets for service requests. He notices that there were a large number of Open Service Requests due to festive season which needed to be resolved at the earliest. So, Sam decides to create an Alert for Active Cases opened in last 7 days using Alerts4Dynamics and chooses Customer Service Representatives as his target audience. This would create Notifications for all the Tickets that were pending and the customer service representatives can follow-up with the Service Team to plan their schedule accordingly for resolving high number of service requests.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sam creates a Rule-Based Alert for Active Cases opened in last 7 days and chooses for the system to check for new Cases that fulfill this condition at an interval of 5 hours. If after 5 hours, new Cases are found, new Notifications are created for them.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-20298 size-full\" style=\"border: 1px solid #0a0a0a; padding: 1px; margin: 1px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.inogic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Alerts4Dynamics.png\" alt=\"Dynamics 365 Alerts Notifications\" width=\"1366\" height=\"621\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.inogic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Alerts4Dynamics.png 1366w, https:\/\/www.inogic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Alerts4Dynamics-300x136.png 300w, https:\/\/www.inogic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Alerts4Dynamics-768x349.png 768w, https:\/\/www.inogic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Alerts4Dynamics-1024x466.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.inogic.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Alerts4Dynamics-660x300.png 660w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1366px) 100vw, 1366px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Now, Sam creates Notifications for these Alerts and adds information he wants his target users to see.
