  Key Concepts: 
  Quantity alert is a feature of SAP SCM Basis that allows users to set up an alert when the quantity of a certain material reaches a certain threshold. This alert can be used to trigger an action, such as ordering more of the material or notifying a supervisor. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To set up a quantity alert, users must first define the material and the threshold at which they want to be alerted. This can be done in the SAP SCM Basis system by navigating to the “Alerts” tab and selecting “Quantity Alerts”. From there, users can enter the material and threshold information and save the alert. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  It is important to remember that quantity alerts are triggered when the quantity of a material reaches or exceeds the threshold, not when it falls below it. Additionally, users should be aware that they can set up multiple alerts for different materials and thresholds.
