Limits
The Oversight module of Vantage allows administrators the ability to set control limits on the incoming data and send notifications when limits are breached. These limits are evaluated in real-time as the data flows into Vantage and notifications are immediately sent when the data exceeds the control limits. Existing control limits are viewed under the Control Monitoring tab and can be filtered based on Processor, Merchant, and Limit Type.

Figure 7. Vantage Oversight Control Limits
Each individual limit can be edited or deleted by clicking on the hamburger menu on the right under the ‘Actions’ column:

Figure 8. Editing Existing Control Limits
Limits can be configured and set by clicking on the ‘Set Limit’ button in the top right of the Control Limits page. As the picture below shows, limits can be assigned per Processor/ISO (or across all processors), by limit type, and configured to send notifications to specific users within the Vantage system via dropdown/autofill of registered users that have been added via the Organization Administration (see Administration section).
