# Monitoring and Alert
# Purpose
Most customers currently interact with the TripLink through the system. However, there are instances where the response times may be excessive, requests may time out, or some business operations may fail.
For example, authorization result notifications are sent from TripLink to the customer system. If the customer system experiences a timeout, it might go unnoticed, potentially leading to financial losses.
Furthermore, if the customer system fails to call TripLink for card activation and lacks proper monitoring, it could also cause significant impact.
To address these issues, we have introduced monitoring and alert functionalities to help customers more effectively track their business operations.
New menu items Alert Dashboard and Monthly Report have been added under the primary directory System Management.
This dashboard enables real-time monitoring of the customer's system status, including notification timeouts and response times. The panels support email alert configuration, allowing customers to receive emails when certain thresholds are reached.
