Publish an alert from an existing alert template

Before creating and publishing a new alert, go to the BlackBerry AtHoc Home Page and check the list of all alerts that are currently live, scheduled, and recurring in the system. Doing so will help you avoid creating a duplicate alert.
The most common way to create an alert is to open an existing alert template, modify its contents, and then publish it.
  1. In the navigation bar, click 
    Alerts
    .
  2. Click 
    New Alert
    .
    The Select from Alert Templates screen opens, displaying all alert templates that you have access to in the system.
    To view details about any of the alert templates in the list, hover your cursor over an alert template name.
  3. Do one of the following:
    • Quick Publish: Click 
      Publish
       next to an alert template in the 
      Ready to Publish
       column.
    • Modify and publish: Click 
      Edit Alert
       to modify the contents of any alert template and then click 
      Publish
      .
      See Create an alert template for detailed instructions on how to fill in the content and target users.
