Business Alert for New User Creation

Posted on by 2

Greetings,
I feel like this question has probably been asked a million times, but I could not find anything in my searches so I'll ask...  Is there a way to set up a Business Alert to notify me when new users are created in GP?  I tried to create this myself but couldn't figure out how to build the formula.  Does anyone know if this is possible?

We do use Rockton's Auditor which is great for reviewing data, but I'd like to have an alert just the same.  Thanks in advance!

Jim

    Jothikrishnan,

    I used the following condition and did get results.  Since I don't need to know realtime, I've set it to look a couple days back.  I'll give yours a try when I have some down time.  Thanks for getting back to me!

    SY01400_T1.CREATDDT > DATEADD(DAY, -2, GETDATE())

    Jim,

    I just tried and it worked like a charm. BA is nothing but a SQL Job. Did you look at you job and view history?  Is it failing? if so, try to address the errors. BA uses the Database Mail to send notifications. So, make sure you have one setup in SQL with a default profile and is working. Also when you setup a  BA thru Wizard, there is a Test mail option and make sure it sends a test mail. I chose Send Mail and Message with Report option and used the condition SY01400_T1.CREATDDT >= convert(varchar(10),getdate() , 101) .

    scheduled the job to run every 3 mins and it worked like a charm. I created a user and got an email with Text file containing new users.

    Regards,

    Jothikrishnan

    It's been some time since this advice, but I was just reviewing my business alerts and it appears this didn't work.  I'll try changing things up and see what happens.  Have you implemented this yourself? Any suggestions?

    Select the Users Master table from system series and use the formula  SY01400_T1.CREATDDT  =  convert(varchar(10),getdate() , 101) ... 101 is the US date format. I havent tried it completely... but try and let us know if it works for u...
