Symptoms
When creating an alert in SharePoint, the option "Someone changes an item that appears in the following view" is not visible or a view doesn't show up in the drop-down list.
Cause
This option and view shows up ONLY if you have custom views that are created with filters based on the Choice column.
The Choice column must be a custom column, not a system-generated column such as Approval Status.
Resolution
In your custom view, create a filter for items based on a custom Choice column.
