The Email Management module enables you to notify employees of actions or instructions necessary to process transactions, approvals, and statements in FlexiPurchase.
1. Creating Automatic Emails
- Click Administration.
- Click Notification Management
- On the Administration – Notification Management screen, click New Notification.
- In the Notifications – Create New window, enter the settings for the email and then click Save.
- You must add a trigger to the automatic email by attaching email components.
2. Editing Automatic Emails
- Go to Administration > Notification Management.

3. Attaching Components to Automatic Emails
Automatic Email Components are additional information that you can include in the email. You can select more than one component, which prevents sending multiple emails to employees. For example, instead of sending an email for outstanding approvals and another email for transactions for coding, you can send one email that contains both information.
- Go to Administration > Notification Management.
- From the list of automatic emails on the Administration - Notification Management screen, click the Component settings icon associated with the email.

The component setting icon will only appear if the email is set to Active. |
