Alerts, prompts, and warning messages display throughout the system. In many cases, they are just reminders that prompt you to confirm an action before proceeding. At other times, they alert you that continuing with your action is unadvised or restricted. Most alerts, prompts, and warning messages are self-explanatory.
For example, the prompt below stops you from inadvertently closing a screen without saving your changes. Like many prompts, this one requires just a Y or N entry.
Depending on your user settings, authorization levels, and workflow, you can proceed past some alerts, prompts, and warning messages. In other cases, you may be required to enter a password to proceed. Whenever you need additional authorization or help, ask your supervisor.
