Alert

Alerts in Vega are small windows that pop up on your screen to give you quick information or notify you about a potential task or reminder. For example, it might advise you to remember something or call someone. Unlike messages, alert boxes do not require any user input. However, you need to acknowledge the alert box by pressing the Don't ask me again key or clicking a mouse button to make it go away.

The typical alert dialogue provides information in a separate box to the user, after which the user can only respond in one way: by closing it. Once the alert is dismissed the box will no longer appear on the screen to view the alert you must access the Contact record the alert was created under. 

Next, Create Notifications and Alerts 'Adding Notes'.
