Dynamics GP Email Functionality

By using the e-mail functionality in Microsoft Dynamics GP, you can embed documents into the body of an email message or send documents as attachments. You can send a single document, batches of documents, or send multiple documents using lists. When setting up the e-mail functionality, you can select which documents you can send and which customers and vendors should receive their documents in e-mail.

You can send the following documents in e-mail.

A document can be sent in either an HTML, XPS, PDF, or DOCX file format type. You also can combine multiple documents to be sent in a single e-mail.

Sending customized messages

You can create predefined messages to send to your customers and vendors. These messages can be assigned to the documents that you want to send in e-mail so all customers or vendors receive the same message for selected documents. For example, you can send a promotional message to your customers when sending sales quotes in e-mail. You also can assign a specific message to an individual customer or vendor. For example, you can send a holiday greeting message to a customer. When you create a message, you can enter an e-mail address so your customer or vendor can reply to your e-mail.
