Setup
To configure warning signals you need to be an admin.
Go to the Admin Console > Warning Signals or click this link.
Click on '+Add warning' in the top right corner to create a new warning signal.
You can create warning signals based on any field in Salesforce incl. custom objects as long as they are related to the Opportunity object.
After creating a warning signal, make sure to assign it to one or multiple profiles and toggle the status to 'Enabled' via the blue toggle.
