RangerMSP Alerts Server Module, which was introduced with version 4.3, allows you to activate email notifications which will keep you updated on what's going on in your system. RangerMSP Alerts Server removes the need to constantly check your system's status, since it sends automatic notifications to your inbox. Alerts are triggered by various system events, such as new Tickets, updated Appointments, etc.

Examples of situations where RangerMSP Alerts Server will send alerts:
* An Appointment with a customer is postponed
* You have been assigned to handle a service Ticket
* An Invoice was created for a customer you are assigned to
* A service issue was resolved
* You have been assigned to handle a new Customer
* A Task was reassigned to someone else
* A service Ticket was closed and you need to generate an Invoice
* Your assignment to resolve a service Ticket has been removed
* The dispatcher scheduled a customer on-site visit for you

RangerMSP Email Alerts can be accessed almost anywhere via your mobile phone, PDA, iPhoneŽ, or any standard email application.

The RangerMSP Alerts Server helps you verify that your work flow is being implemented and that everyone is aware of their tasks. Every user can configure their Alert settings to set the cases in which they will receive alerts. A user's ability to configure their settings is determined by their role in each case. Possible roles include: Account Manager, Ticket Manager, Appointment Manager, and Task Manager.


Benefits
* Increase efficiency with automatic updates to technicians about new jobs or updated appointments
* Save costs by reducing the number of phone calls needed to update everyone since they are automatically informed by email
* Improve your service with technicians who will not miss tasks since they are always in the loop
* Increase customer satisfaction by providing faster responses to open issues
