Group Email

Working with email notification based on alarm state of an indicator.

Is it possible to create a group email (possibly using the Personnel hierarchy).

Goal would be if personnel change within the group, would not need to modify each individual alarm indicator. 

Would only need to modify the group.

BTW, using APM v7.8.

Thanks.

  • Hello Giselle,
    Thank you for the response.
     
    We already had email groups created outside of Bentley. 
    As you suggested we added those email groups to Bentley as an employee and this works well. 
    Thanks for your help.

  • Automating email notification for indicators in alarm is to be used sparsely. Users often overuse this notification feature and end-up polluting their email inboxes with several hundred indicator emails per week. Most of these emails are simply identifying a minor change in state and essentially end-up turning into email noise that the reliability engineer must sift through. The best use of email notification is for targeted failure events that require immediate intervention because of an extreme Safety, Environmental or Operational consequence only. These should typically be targeted to the specific audience of one or 2 people for that asset such as the Senior Engineer or Manager who can then launch an immediate intervention to mitigate the consequence.
