Run account
The user account that is used to run alert definitions. It is a good practice to have a separate account that runs the notifications/alarm.
By using a special account:
• You can place it in its own user group and apply authorization.
• You will not need to reconfigure definitions once the "owner" of an alert definition leaves your company or organization.
You can specify this account in the User running the alert field that is available on all alert definitions.
 | For existing alert definitions, we recommend to only make this field available if you are changing the run account of existing alerts. When you are finished changing, remove it from the layouts and/or function profiles. We also recommend to authorize alert definitions and to make this field editable only by a select number of accounts. |
