When I try to edit an existing alert I receive the attached error. We do not have any workflows and I cannot find any 'Advanced' menu. Help please!
New Alerts & Actions process:
I don't seem to be able to separate approvals to different supervisors based upon agent name in in a column. Has anyone figured out how to do something like that? The help guide seems to contain info for the previous way the alerts & actions worked.
It appears that I could add a supervisor column and that would allow me to do that, but when the supervisors are out of the office (usually several hours a day) I need to revert the approval process to the back up person- me. That would be a hassle to have to notify every agent to change the supervisor name listed.
Any ideas?

Click the dropdown menu under Create a new rule and select Advanced.
You'll have checkboxes to enable the alerts and action rules.

Is there a way to revert to the old dashboard look and feel. The new dashboards do not look good at all. There is no way of knowing if there are additional items in the widgets until you scroll over one to learn there is more to it since the vertical bar doesn't show. We have hundreds of dashboards and they will all need…
When i try to send or print the timeline view instead of showing the progression bars like they do on the screen it only send the data entered and not a graph type view to print. Is there a way to do this. I am using a mac platform if that helps.
