Abstract

Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, are provided for alerts on fields of a report. In one aspect, there is provided a computer-implemented method. The method may receiving, at a first processor, a report generated at a second processor; determining, at the first processor, whether an alert defined for the received report is triggered; and providing an indication that the alert is triggered based on the determining. Related systems, methods, and articles of manufacture may also be provided.

Claims (34)

1 . A non-transitory computer-readable medium containing instructions to configure at least one processor to cause operations comprising:

receiving, at a first processor including a user interface, a report generated at a second processor;

defining, at the user interface including the report, the alert by at least selecting at least one of a field of the report or a column of the report;

determining, at the first processor, whether an alert defined for the received report is triggered, wherein the alert includes a condition and metadata, wherein the condition is representative of a trigger for the alert, and wherein the metadata defines navigation through the report to determine whether the selected at least one of the field or the column satisfy the condition; and

providing an indication that the alert is triggered based on the determining.

2 - 3 . (canceled)

4 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving, from a user interface, information representative of the alert linked to at least one field of the report, wherein the alert is triggered when a data value in the at least one field satisfies a trigger value.

5 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 1 , wherein determining further comprises:

determining whether the at least one field in the received report includes a data value which triggers the alert defined for the at least one field.

6 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the received report includes at least one of a plurality of alerts defined for at least one of a plurality of fields in the received report.

7 . A method comprising:

receiving, at a first processor including a user interface, a report generated at a second processor;

defining, at the user interface including the resort the alert b at least selectins at least one of a field of the report or a column of the report;

determining, at the first processor, whether an alert defined for the received report is triggered, wherein the alert includes a condition and metadata, wherein the condition is representative of a trigger for the alert, and wherein the metadata defines navigation through the report to determine whether the selected at least one of the field or the column satisfy the condition; and

providing an indication that the alert is triggered based on the determining.

8 - 9 . (canceled)

10 . The method of claim 7 , further comprising:

receiving, from a user interface, information representative of the alert linked to at least one field of the report, wherein the alert is triggered when a data value in the at least one field satisfies a trigger value.

11 . The method of claim 7 , wherein determining further comprises:

determining whether the at least one field in the received report includes a data value which triggers the alert defined for the at least one field.

12 . The method of claim 7 , wherein the received report includes at least one of a plurality of alerts defined for at least one of a plurality of fields in the received report.

13 . A system comprising:

at least one processor; and

at least one memory, which when executed by the at least one processor causes operations comprising:

defining, at the user interface including the report, the alert b at least selecting at least one of a field of the report or a column of the report;

determining, at the first processor, whether an alert defined for the received report is triggered, wherein the alert includes a condition and metadata, wherein the condition is representative of a trigger for the alert, and wherein the metadata defines navigation through the report to determine whether the selected at least one of the field or the column satisfy the condition; and

providing an indication that the alert is triggered based on the determining.

14 - 15 . (canceled)

16 . The system of claim 13 , further comprising:

receiving, from a user interface, information representative of the alert linked to at least one field of the report, wherein the alert is triggered when a data value in the at least one field satisfies a trigger value.

17 . The system of claim 13 , wherein determining further comprises:

determining whether the at least one field in the received report includes a data value which triggers the alert defined for the at least one field.

18 . The system of claim 13 , wherein the received report includes at least one of a plurality of alerts defined for at least one of a plurality of fields in the received report.
