Alerts
Alerts are the things Tobren Operations noticed on your behalf: a maintenance item gone overdue, a crew member’s knowledge recency about to lapse, an insurance document expiring. Find the inbox under Alerts in the nav — it’s also where the dashboard’s alert panel sends you.
What raises an alert
| Alert | Raised when |
|---|---|
| Maintenance due | A tracked maintenance item passes its interval. See Maintenance. |
| Knowledge recency (§107.65) | A crew member’s aeronautical knowledge recency is lapsing or lapsed. |
| Flight recency | A crew member hasn’t flown inside your organization’s flight-recency window — a house policy, not a Part 107 rule. |
| Insurance expiry | An insurance document is approaching or past its expiry date. |
| Document expiry | Any other tracked document is approaching or past its expiry date. See Documents. |
| Access expiry | A time-limited aircraft access grant is running out. See Fleet. |
Each alert carries a severity — info, warning, or critical — its message, how long it’s been open, and a link straight to the record that triggered it, so you can go fix the thing rather than go find it.
Alerts also feed compliance reports: a fleet report’s overall
status turns critical when a critical alert is open.
Dismissing an alert
Dismiss silences an alert. It takes at least a Member role — a Viewer sees the inbox but not the action.
Dismiss is the only action, deliberately. It silences the alert; it does not assert that the underlying record was fixed. If the condition still exists, the fix is on the record itself — service the maintenance item, file the recency date, upload the renewed document.
Email and push delivery
Every alert appears in the app on every plan, free included — nothing is ever withheld from the in-app inbox.
Sending that alert out of the app — by email or push notification — is a paid-plan feature. On the free plan the alert row is still created and still visible in the inbox; only the outbound delivery is skipped, and it’s recorded as skipped rather than silently dropped.
Which channels a given person receives is their own preference, set per user in Settings.
