The "Alerts" card is your automated inspector. It checks your operation every minute and lists exactly what needs fixing, with a click-through to the right screen.
Red entries are urgent (late work, overdue invoices, expired or missing licenses, missing core setup). Amber entries are warnings (licenses expiring soon, maintenance, incomplete profiles). Blue entries are informational (drivers on leave, accepted estimates).
Late work raises entries like "3 late deliveries", "2 late pickups", and "1 late landfill run"; clicking them opens Dispatch. Fleet issues raise "1 truck in maintenance", "1 truck maintenance due" (scheduled maintenance past its date or odometer target), and "2 dumpsters under maintenance".
Driver checks raise "1 driver without license", "1 expired driver license", "2 licenses expiring soon" (within 90 days), and "1 driver on leave", each listing the driver names and linking to the Drivers page.
Missing foundations raise "No dumpster sizes configured", "No dumpster units registered", "No drivers registered", "No trucks registered", "Incomplete personal profile", and "Incomplete company profile", each linking to the screen where you fix it.
Overdue invoices get special treatment: a red summary row shows the count and total amount, and each invoice is listed individually with its number, customer, "Due" date, and amount. Clicking a row deep-links to that order in Order History.
When a customer accepts an estimate, a blue entry like "Estimate #1024 accepted" appears for 48 hours (until acknowledged), linking to the estimates list in Customers.
Overdue alerts count invoices in "sent" status past their due date; invoices on canceled or declined orders are excluded. Mark the invoice as paid (or cancel it) and the alert clears on the next refresh.
