A Team in OneVue represents a group of users that receive alert notifications based on their work schedule. Teams allow notifications to be sent to staff based on the day of the week and time of day.
Within a Team, a shift specifies who is to receive alert notifications based on the day of the week and time of day. A Team can have one shift or multiple shifts. Once a Team is created, an Alert Rule is set to Team scheduling and the Team is then required to be added to the Alert Rule.
Note
If an active alert spans across more than one shift, OneVue automatically send alert notifications to those specified in the current shift. As an example, if an alert was activated during shift 1 and the alert remains active during shift 2, subsequent alert notifications will be sent to those specified in shift 2.

Escalation Time
An Alert Rule can be configured to send one-time escalation notifications in a given order when an alerting condition has not returned to a Normal state for a specified period of time. Escalation notifications are sent based on start time of the alerting condition. If a user acknowledges an alert notification, the countdown to sending an escalation notification is paused and the countdown resumes at the time alert notifications resume (Resume Alerts Interval setting). The first escalation is sent based on the Escalate settings, and the second escalation sent is based on the Next Escalation settings.
Escalate To
Who is to receive the one-time alert escalation notification. It's recommended to send to a user(s) that is not recipient of the alert notification (Alerts Go To).
Next Escalation Time
When a second one-time escalation notification is generated if the alerting condition continues to be in an Alarm state.
Escalate To Next
