This article explains how to send an e-mail using Unity and how e-mails are automatically saved into the system.
Follow along with the video training here:
Here are the steps to send an email:
- Click the New Unity E-mail button
- In the dialogue box, select the case by clicking into the Case field and choosing from your recent cases
- Under Recipients, if your client’s e-mail address is already saved in the system, tick the checkbox to select it. If not, you can manually enter the e-mail address later
- Enter the subject of your e-mail in the Subject field
- If you would like to save the e-mail to a specific folder, select the appropriate option from Folder field.
-
If required, add an internal note
- This note will only be visible on your side and will not appear to the client.
- To record time, tick the Record Time box, then select your units and attendance code
- If needed, select the option to create a new calendar event. This will create an event in Outlook only and will not create a calendar entry in Unity
- Once all details have been completed, click OK
-
A new e-mail window will open in Outlook. The subject line will include a thread reference
- This thread reference allows e-mails to automatically save into Unity when they are sent and received
- Do not edit or remove the thread reference. If it is changed or deleted, automatic saving will stop and e-mails will need to be saved manually
- Compose your message as you would with a normal e-mail. You can also manually enter the recipient’s e-mail address if it was not selected earlier
- Once your e-mail is ready, click Send
The e-mail will be sent through Outlook and automatically saved into Unity.
