let's say i want to create an alert to send an email when a customer record gets created. I have 6 generic questions
There are two things
changed based alert and due date alerts.
I think for this case, changed based alert is needed. What is the difference if i click on "changed based alert" once or if i click batch processing true? if i don't put batch processing true, does that mean it will only run once? i mean i will only get one email and that's it?
Regarding due date alerts, is this needed for any date field? So if i create an alert when field has changed. Now if i put the event as "has changed", will I need the "due date alert" or only "changed based alert" is needed? And if put the event as "is due" or "is due in" then will I need this "due date alerts" instead?
In the case where due date alert is needed, running it alone is enough or will i need to "changed based alert" with it?
also for due date alerts, what is the difference between running it once or clicking batch true?
When we create custom alert, there is "send externally" flag. Is this needed when i want to send an email to another domain. I mean if the company domain is xx.com and i want to send it to yy.com then i need to tick this flag as true? or no need? or will i need this flag only if i want to send the alert as business event?
There is "Email distributor batch" what does this one do? do i need this enabled for any alert that sends an email? and same thing what is the difference between running it once or as batch?
