The Monitor feature acts like your early warning system in SystemView. Instead of waiting until a problem becomes visible, you can set a monitoring goal on any chart series and let the system track it for you. Want to keep activity levels steady, make sure key standards aren’t slipping, or get notified the moment performance drops? Monitor keeps a constant eye on your data and sends you alerts when thresholds are crossed - so you can respond quickly and stay in control. See What is MyView? for background.
💡When to use this feature: Use Monitor when you want to maintain performance standards and get ahead of risks before they escalate.
