At the moment all stock alerts come through the **Stock Items** tab when they hit their re-order quantity.

It would be great if stock alerts could be assigned to certain users. Fairly self explanatory but for example if I was looking after glassware, and the minimum quantity we wanted on Breww was 96, when stock levels reach that volume, I personally get tagged/alerted rather than it just being flagged on Stock Items.

Thanks for the great suggestion, Laura.

How do you suggest the “owner” of a stock item is configured? Presumably, on a per-stock-item basis is too granular, but maybe on a “Type” (e.g. Ingreident or Packaging) or “Sub-type” (“Hop” vs “Grain”) basis?

We can also see how this would definitely be useful - in our use case, I think by type would be enough.

E.g. Packaging can alert someone in warehouse, grain/hops.etc to production…

If breww did go down the route of doing this for individual items, there would need to be a way to easily change the allocated member without having to go through hundreds of items (e.g. change of responsibilities, new staff.etc)

@luke Yes please, I think ‘Type’ would be good. Might just need a new 'type’of glassware to be created and go via that route

I would really like to see this functionality set at subtype level.

Hello,

Was there progress on assigning types of Alerts to different individuals?  
Seeing integration issues and helping resolve them is good, but I’d like to streamline the Alerts to primary solvers are notified on the dashboard but not everyone whom is involved in that permission.  
Those who only order will want to know if we are low stock, not everyone who has permission to interact with stock.  
It interferes with the other Alerts, this losses it’s function of notifying you asap there is something to fix.

Maybe if there was a toggle on a personal account basis?

Cheers,  
Tom
