Enterprise resource planning systems can be configured to help businesses keep track of events that could affect one or more supply chains. A key purpose for such a system is to ensure a smooth flow of goods or services from suppliers to purchasers. One way to help ensure that the supply chain is efficiently maintained is to set alerts when events occur. However, alerts are usually not flexible or as easy to use as users would like. An apparatus and methods are provided for facilitating the creation and use of user-defined event rules for aggregate fields. Aggregate fields are defined by a user, who can also define one or more rules relative to the aggregate field.
