Publish a blank alert

Important: Before you create and publish a new alert, go to the BlackBerry AtHoc home page and check the list of all alerts that are currently live, scheduled, and recurring in the system. This will help you avoid creating a duplicate alert.

If you have operator permissions, you can create a new alert without any predefined content or targeted users.

  1. In the navigation bar, click Alerts > New Alert.
  2. On the Select from Alert Templates screen, click Create a Blank Alert.
  3. Define alert template details.
  4. Define content for an alert or alert template.
  5. Target users.
  6. Click Review and Publish.
  7. On the Review and Publish screen, review the content of the alert.
  8. Optionally, click Export to PDF to export the content of the alert template to a PDF file.
  9. Optionally, click Preview and Publish to preview how the alert content appears to end users.
    Note: This option is not available for bilingual alerts.
  10. Click Publish.
