Views defined for collection pages
You can display outstanding alert details in views defined for a collections page.
Resources with alerts viewlet
Collections allow you to define the contents of the Resources with alerts standard viewlet. The viewlet displays a list of resources in a collection that currently has one or more outstanding alerts. Figure 2–8 shows an example of the Resource with alerts viewlet.
