Re: SDIs and Alerts

[Kimberly Parker <kimberly.parker@yale.edu>]

What is involved in turning SDI's and Alerts on?
--I have to request activation of that feature with SilverPlatter.
--No additional elements in logon.

The suggestion from Medical was *ONLY* for SDI's and Alerts.  No
recommendation (yet) about Document Delivery.  So since no one else has
asked for it, that won't be put forward.

We can turn on SDIs and Alerts without activating the DocDeliv option.
They are separate activations.
