Understanding the CyberGrants Alert Extension

The CyberGrants Alert Extension enhances your platform's compliance monitoring by providing real-time notification capabilities within your corporate giving programs. This extension allows administrators to receive automated alerts when specific conditions are met or violated across various record types, enabling proactive management of potential compliance issues. 

The Alert Extension serves as a monitoring framework that automatically evaluates records against your predefined criteria. When implemented effectively, it delivers several key benefits: 

  • Real-time compliance monitoring immediately identifies transactions or records that require attention.
  • Consistent rule enforcement ensures business rules are applied uniformly across all evaluated records.
  • Administrative efficiency reduces manual review time by highlighting only exceptions that need attention.
  • Risk mitigation proactively identifies potential compliance issues before they become problems.

Key Features:

  • Multiple alert types - Configure alerts for Organizations, Grant Requests, Employee Giving Requests, and Employee Giving Nominations
  • Flexible evaluation criteria - Define specific conditions that trigger alerts based on your program requirements
  • Alert severity options - Choose between "soft" alerts (informational warnings) and "hard" alerts (process-blocking notices)
  • Visual notifications - Delivers clear on-screen messages when alert conditions are met 

Limitations and Considerations:

  • Alert messages are statically defined (hard-coded) and cannot dynamically change based on evaluation results.
  • Merge fields cannot be incorporated into alert messages.
  • Alerts are designed for internal administrative use only.
  • Program Constants must be defined according to Bonterra's methodology to ensure proper functionality.
  • Only one modification to alert criteria or configurations is permitted per calendar year.
  • Changes or modifications outside the extension’s scope may require additional development resources or incur additional costs.
