Create rule by running low, yield and level criteria

Allows you to configure a rule to generate an alert when a supply is running low, based on the following criteria:

  • Running low by: when the estimated end of supply is equal to or less than X days.

  • Yield: when production reaches X% of its capacity.

  • Level: when the supply level is equal to or less than X%.

In the level criterion, we consider values from 0 to 100 for the supply.

For supplies that use known printer codes that indicate that they are running low (such as -100, -3 or another value), create a rule using the specific level criterion.
