Removing Alerts for Other Users

As a site manager you have the ability to remove alerts for other users. Keep in mind that when you remove a user from a Web site, site group, or cross-site group after he or she has created alerts, you must manually delete any alerts that he or she has set up. This is also true for any lists or libraries where you change security settings to limit access. If a user has set up alerts for the list or library, he or she will continue to receive them after you change the security settings. It is important to delete these alerts to prevent unauthorized users from having access to site and user information.

To view existing alerts and remove alerts, access the User Alerts screen.
