The Publishing Lifecycle tab traces the progress of the alert and how it was handled during delivery. The Publishing Lifecycle section shows information such as the following:

• When the alert went through the delivery gateway
• If a failure prevented the alert from being delivered
• If the alert needed to be redirected because of a gateway failover
• When the recipients were populated
• When the alert was marked as Live
• When the alert was delivered
• Batch reports of when the alert messages were sent.

Click Show Details to see a detailed batch log. A batch contains the alerts for each targeted user and is sent to a delivery gateway corresponding to the personal or mass devices targeted in the alert. The batch report tracks the delivery of the batch to the gateway and whether it was successful. It shows if there was a problem with the batch and whether it had to be sent to another gateway for delivery. This is called batch recovery.
