View Smart Alerts by ID

The details related to a Smart Alert appear in a slider window with the following tabs for key pieces of data: Smart Alert Details, Manufacturer, Parts Affected, and Where Used (BOMs). Use this workflow for a Smart Alert-centric view. To use a BOM-centric workflow where Smart Alert details for a specific BOM are highlighted, refer to View Alerts by BOM.

PSC details are not included in the View Alerts by ID results.

  2. The View Smart Alert slider appears with the Smart Alert Details tab displayed.
  3. Select from the following tabs:
    • Smart Alert Details - view the manufacturer Smart Alert details, including the original notice as a hyperlink, and a hyperlink to a single affected part or a list of the affected parts, which when clicked lists the results in the Parts Affected tab. When viewing Smart Alert details in the Alerts slider, if there are multiple Smart Alert file documents, clicking the link displays a popup window listing multiple documents organized by name, and date from which you can select.
    • Manufacturer - view details about the manufacturer who issued the Smart Alert including their contact information and corporate website.
    • Parts Affected - view a list of parts affected by the Smart Alert. Using the Affected BOMs column, click either the BOM name (if only one BOM is affected), or click View Affected BOMs (where more than one BOM is affected) to display the Where Used (BOMs) tab in the slider.
    • Where Used (BOMs) - view a list of BOMs that contain the affected part with details for each BOM and the Smart Alert status.

      On the Where Used BOM(s) tab, select one or more BOM(s), click the Set Smart Alert Status toolbar menu option to select the desired status, and then click Apply Smart Alert Status. Smart Alert status can also be changed using a BOM-centric view from the Part Alerts tab of the View Single BOM window.

    • Select Export format - XLS/XLSX (Microsoft Excel), CSV (Microsoft Excel and other ASCII text-based editors or spreadsheet software), or tab-delimited TXT (Microsoft Excel and other ASCII text based editors).

The file is saved to your system with the file name, ihs_alerts_by_ID.xyz, where xyz is the file format you selected above. Hyperlinks for Smart Alert documents are included in the export, so that you can navigate directly to the document.
