Managing Email Templates (Corporate)

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

You can manage email templates within the system. These email templates fall into three categories, as follows:

  • System Letters
  • Job Letters
  • Internal

The Manage Email Templates section consists of the four tabs: System Letters, Job Letters, Internal and Layout. The similar approach is applied to manage System Letters, Job Letters and internal templates. The main difference is that you cannot create new System Letters and internal email templates and you can edit only the pre-defined variants.
