Creating task alerts

Task alerts can be created after you perform a search on the browse tasks page. Any search you perform can be saved as an alert by clicking the "Save Search as an Alert" link which is located in the top search summary panel.

As soon as you save the alert the Manage Alerts link will display that directs you to the Watchlist & Alerts screen where you can change the email frequency or remove the alert.

New alerts are set to email you every day by default. You can change this default setting on the Email Options page.

Adding tasks to your watchlist

Tasks can be added to your watchlist by clicking the Add to Watchlist button when viewing the tasks detail page. You will be emailed a reminder 12 hours before the listing closes by default. You can change this default setting on the Email Options page.

You can choose to also be notified when a lower bid is placed and when a higher bid is placed. By default these options are disabled and can be enabled from the Email Options page provides.
