NOTE: This is feature is available in Sage 50 Accounts Professional v27 and above.

1. Open Sage 50 Accounts then click Suppliers.
2. Double-click the supplier record, or click the supplier then click Edit.
3. Click Alerts then click New.

The custom alert is now listed in the Alert tab where you can see its description, when it was created, and its active status.

To amend a custom alert, highlight it, then click Edit.
