Review the targeting summary

The bottom section of the Target Users section displays the Targeting Summary, showing the total number of groups and users that have been selected and blocked and the number of targeted locations and personal devices included in the alert. As additional groups, users, and devices are added to or removed from the target group, the section updates automatically.
Clicking any of the numbered links in the Targeting Summary field opens a popup screen that provides a list of the users, devices, or search conditions related to the selected target.
By Groups
The By Groups summary screen lists all of the organizational hierarchies and all distribution lists that are included in the alert. If a group or distribution list has children that have been blocked, the alert will not go out to users within those sub-groups or sub-distribution lists.
By Groups-Blocked
The Groups-Blocked summary screen lists all of the organizational hierarchies and all distribution lists that have been excluded from the alert. If all sub-groups or sub-distribution list of a parent have been blocked manually, the parent is not, by default, blocked as well. The parent can only be blocked by manually selecting it for blocking.
By Users
The By Users screen lists all of the users who have been selected for inclusion in the alert.
By Users-Blocked
The By Users-Blocked screen lists all of the users who have been blocked from receiving the alert.
By Location
The By Location screen displays a map showing each of the locations that have been targeted in the alert. This is the same map that can be seen in the location field in the Content section of the new alert template or new alert screen.
By Advanced Query
The By Advanced Query screen lists all of the search conditions that have been created in order to identify the target audience for the alert.
Personal Devices
The Personal Devices screen displays a list of each of the personal devices that will be used to target the alert recipients. Beside each device listed is the percent of alert recipients who can be reached using the device.
