Once you have added the Virto Alerts & Reminder App to your SharePoint site, you can adjust it and start working.

## My alerts

The “**My alerts**” tab contains the alerts you own. By default, if you create an alert, you become the owner and have permission to disable, edit, or delete this alert.

To disable an alert, untick the green checkbox. Disabled alerts are highlighted in pink.

The queue icon will take you to the “**Queue**” tab, where you can view when the chosen alert or reminder was or will be sent according to the schedule.
