Getting The Battery Icon In The Message Center Again.

This battery icon is flashing in my message center again (200 Oldsmoble Shilloute) just 200 miles after I had a brand new alternator installed after it did the same thing. Belt is good, what else could be causing this problem...battery is not holding or being charged. (put a voltage meter to it)  Please help! Don't want to spend another $300.
