Using Alert in Power BI Service
Hello,
I'm trying to manage alerts so that I can watch the inventory of the products of my company.
The purpose of this is to be notify if the stock of a product is under the minimum stock.
For example, if I have 200 coca-cola and the minimum stock is 300, I will receive an alert.
Now the problem here is that I have two columns which contains the actual stock and the minimum stock and I don't know how to make alert based on the difference of the two columns. Each product have his own minimum stock.
For example, you can see the table below :
| Product Code | Actual Stock | Minimum Stock |
| 30000222 | 1000 | 1200 |
| 3002373 | 2000 | 1000 |
Hi eric98 ,
According to your description, here is my solution.
Create a column.
Column = IF ( 'Table'[Actual Stock] < 'Table'[Minimum Stock], 1, BLANK () )Put the column into a card.
Set to trigger an alarm when the sum of column is greater than 0. And then you will get the notification.

Can you create a calculation in your model that subtracts the two fields?
