Only Users who have been given permission to receive or enable Client Alert notifications can utilize Client Alert options. If no permission has been given, the Client Alert boxes will be grayed out and a prohibited icon will appear and will be prompted with “This user does not have permission to use this option." Enable the Client Alert notification permission within the User Group permissions under Remote Client Permissions
