  2. Select a group from the Usage alert group drop-down.
    For more information, see Usage alerts.
  3. Type a value in the Total units for this group field.
    This is a numerical value of the group. It is recommended that a value of "0" be entered to allow Smile to calculate the total units of the plan from the plan rules. Specifying a total manually may result in inaccurate calculations for usage alerts.
  4. Type a value in the Display limit for this group field.
    This is an alpha-numeric description used when displaying the limit in usage alert messages. For example, the plan name.
  5. Click Save.
