Alerts per QC report will first notify individual machine assignees, and then relevant groups when an instrument is due for a QC within a given timeframe.
Alerts per QC:
| Individual ("My Machines Only") alerts | Group alerts | Purpose | |
|---|---|---|---|
| LeakTest (30 days) | 26 days | 28 days | Check O rings on individual barrels to ensure no leaks |
Artel (180 days) | 159 days | 175 days | Dye test to ensure proper volume dispensed per well |
MyMachinesOnly alerts
This type of alert works based on a custom view where "Show My Machines Only" = true. This looks at Jira instrument data to see who the assignee of a machine is.
The downside with this approach is that individual assignees need to be manually added to the alert recipients field.
Not getting MyMachinesOnly alerts?
- Check that you are set as the assignee of the instrument in JIRA
- Ask analytics to check the alert to see if your name is on it. (Admin links: Leaktest, Artel)
Group alerts
Group alerts work by sending alerts for saved custom views to relevant role account users. These saved custom views are created for each value in the Department field in Jira.
Google group users that want to be included in this setup need to contact BITS and request a role account for that google group so that Tableau may discover it.
The alert Artel Due (WGS Group) is based on a saved custom view called WGS where the Department filter is set to WGS.
Then an alert is created using this view, and the user wgs_group is listed as a recipient and will receive the alert at wgs@broadinstitute.org.
