Emailing trading partners

Top  Previous  Next

Email Partners

 

The Trading Partners module includes a feature that enables you to send an email to all trading partners in this domain. This can be useful in cases where you would want to notify all partners with a defined email address about something, like a scheduled maintenance, a new feature that they can benefit from, and just about any message that concerns all partners.

 

To send an email message to all trading partners, go to the Trading Partners module and click the Email Partners button.

You can then specify a Subject and enter the Message.

After you click OK, JSCAPE MFT Server will iterate through all trading partners and send a single email message using the settings defined in Settings > Email > Email, with each recipient in Bcc mode and From address being the same as the From address defined in Settings > Email > Email
