You would set your trigger to be date based and then select the option for Custom Recurrence to set up the monthly portion.<\/p>

You would use a condition of the Status column being \"Active\" to apply the filter.<\/p>

Then the recipient for the Alert would be \"Send To Contacts In A Cell\" and you would select the Project Leader column which will only send rows meeting the previous condition to the appropriate Project Leader(s). So if I am leader on rows 1, 3, and 5 (assuming they are all active), I will only be alerted to rows 1, 3, and 5.<\/p>
