This page reports alerts at category and product levels, by alert type and basis, with the ability to drill down to report at category and product levels. 

Alert parameters enable you to set the thresholds for alert level, for product-level alerts.

These parameters are typically set by a System Administrator at the global level in the D1000 - Global Demand Parameters dashboard and apply to all product-customer combinations.

An admin can manage these parameters, at a global level, in D1000 - Global Demand Parameters.

Effective Parameters are values that are currently set. Edit Parameters allows you to enter new values for the same parameters. When you enter a value, it becomes an effective parameter.
