Managing SupportAssist Enterprise alerts in
TechDirect
Dell EMC TechDirect is a centralized support portal that enables administrators in your organization to manage alerts that are
created by SupportAssist Enterprise. By default, SupportAssist Enterprise automatically forwards alerts that qualify for support
case creation or parts dispatch to Dell EMC. TechDirect enables Administrators to set rules that allow them to review and
determine if the alerts need to be forwarded to Dell EMC for case creation or parts dispatch.
