"Alert Me" Feature Configuration in SharePoint

Problem: - User wants to see all the items which are Added or Updated within a day in the SharePoint list or library. Just one example, one user has an owner of the SharePoint site. He creates one list (name Employee Details) and he want know how many items are added or updated in a day. He wants all the data in the form of email at the end of the day (just like Employee Details- Daily Summary).



Solution: - It is possible in many ways like in Nintex workflow, SharePoint Designer workflow but most simple way is using Out of box “Alert feature”. It is very simple or everyone who has permission can able to configure the alert feature in the list or library in the SharePoint.

Following are the steps of configuration the “Alert” feature in the SharePoint:-
1. Log into SharePoint site.
2. Go to list or library where you want to configure the alert feature then click on “Alert Me” tab in list tools.

3.Then configure according to conditions:- - User wants to see all the items which are Added or Updated within a day in the SharePoint list.
