Defining Collection Element Alert Actions

Trigger:

Concept

You can assign any of these five alert actions to collection elements: 
 Send an electronic mail notification.   
 Execute a SQL script.   
 Execute an operating system script.   
 Launch a concurrent request. 

While defining Quality alert actions, you need to give action details, like the recipients (for
electronic mail notifications) or arguments, and file names (for SQL and operating system
scripts). You can also customize alert action details associating output variables that represent
quality results values. You can associate a output variable token to represent values, so that these
values can be included in the details of the alert action.
 
In this topic, you will define a collection element alert action.
