Hi all,
The requirement is to send email based on if the data was written to a table for a certain time period?

I know that we can write a procedure to check if the data is there.Can anyone help me with associating that procedure with raising alerts/notifications if the data is not present?


Thanks in anticipation

seems like what you need is configure a sql job which checks for data and sends notifications via email.

Ok...so to make it simpler,i have a stored procedure which will run through a SQL job and give me a return code(0 or -1).Based on that return code i want to send email to operators.

What should i associate the return code to in SQL job so as to generate alerts/notification?

you can make sql job execute a t-sql query. just use a variable to receive the return code and use IF condition to check if 1 and use sp_send_dbmail to send mail inside if block
