Currently Onix Work allows the contact person in Tool Store to be notified if the inventory of stock / consumable items falls below a certain custom threshold level.

My concern is that this will lead to large amounts of emails / notifications. Additionally, the Tool Store responsible will need to keep track of these items in a separate system / spreadsheet to be added to next Order from supplier. Could it be an idea to merge all of these notifications to one common Summary Report that is distributed on a e.g. weekly, 14 days or monthly basis?

That way there is less spam, and the responsible Tool Store owner does not necessarily have to keep track of this in a separate system.

The optimal scenario would be probably be API calls from Tool Store to the designated Supplier; auto-adding low-inventory equipment to the next Order. However, a more “low-hanging fruit” solution could be to just make summary reports.

Thoughts?

Hi @erlend.anfinsen  
Thank you for your product idea!  
We are planning big changes to the way companies can setup alerts - Tool Store alerts included. Meaning they should be able to define alerts related to your suggestion.  
This functionality is planned within the year.

Hi @erlend.anfinsen ,  
This product idea is covered by and linked to the following product idea, so I’ll change the state to “Dropped” to avoid duplicates.

> [@Make the notification system better](https://community.onix.com/t/make-the-notification-system-better/177):
>
> Make it possible with push notifications for new issues generated by internal maintenance from checklists, and when generating a new issue. Also setting up “contact person” for receiving these notifications by control category. For example: Daily checklists on control category “BKK”. When an issue is generated from the checklist the contact person in the workshop should be able to receive notifications only related to the control category “BKK”.
