Alerts and notifications
Poultry farm alerts that reach the right person
Chickensystem checks the figures as they are registered. When one passes your limit, the people responsible get an alert on their phone — day and night — and it keeps asking until someone takes care of it.
Rules with your limits
A layer farm might start with these: more than 20 dead hens in a house in a day, water per 1,000 hens 20 % below the average of the last three days, no water reading by 10:30, a cold room above 8 °C, a house above 30 °C, an egg count that differs more than 2 % from the calculated stock. Each rule has its own severity and recipients, and a house can have its own limit.
Critical alerts on the lock screen
Critical alerts are sent with high priority. On iPhone they are time-sensitive, so they come through Focus modes the user allows; on Android they use a dedicated channel with sound and vibration. The text is in each person’s language.
Acknowledge, resolve, escalate
Tapping the alert opens it in the app. The supervisor acknowledges it — even without coverage — and resolves it with a note on what was done. A critical alert that nobody acknowledges is sent again and escalated to the next person. If a phone cannot be reached at all, the alert is e-mailed.
Frequently asked questions
Are alerts sent at night?
Yes. Critical alerts have no quiet hours; that is the point of them.
Can we change the limits ourselves?
Yes. Supervisors and company admins change limits, severity, recipients and escalation, for the whole farm or one house.
What if the phone has no coverage?
The alert waits and arrives when the phone reconnects. If it cannot be delivered, it is e-mailed.
Do we get an alert for every registration?
No. One alert is raised per rule, house and day, and its value is updated while it is open.
Do missed tasks raise alerts?
They can. A task not done by its deadline is marked as missed, and a rule decides whether that becomes an alert.
