We are using the new alerts feature in Sage 200 which are created via the account in sales ledger.

The principal is great (we had a bespoke version added to Sage prior to this update, so we already appreciated the benefits), although I have a query with the option for which forms the alert appears on.

I think the options should be defaulted to all forms selected, as opposed to the unselected that they currently are. Then, the forms that do should not show the alert can be deselected.

If you are entering an alert, you clearly want it to appear, so shouldn't the default state be all forms selected?

I know it just a click to select all, but we have already experienced this being missed and the alert consequently not appearing anywhere, which rather defeats the object!

What are the general thoughts on this?
