Impact alert notifications include enhanced visibility and control when modifying deployable object configurations. These notifications help prevent unintended large-scale deployments by giving administrators insight into how their modifications will affect devices and existing configurations across their organization. When editing the scope of any deployable object (e.g., policies, configuration profiles, apps), a confirmation dialog displays an alert message that indicates that significant changes may cause increased network traffic and temporary application instability.

Impact alert notifications for deployable objects apply to the following object types:
  • Policies
  • eBooks
  • Configuration profiles
  • PreStage enrollments
  • Patch management
  • Restricted software
  • Mac and mobile device apps
  • Volume purchasing invitations and user assignments

You can enable this feature in Settings > System > Impact alert notifications. You can also enable an option that requires users to type Commit before saving changes to provide an additional safeguard against accidental deployments.
