About

  • Default Supplier Email Address allows Organisations to use different emails accounts for different emailing purposes
  • The Default Supplier Email Address is an enhancement to the email communication capabilities which is available from 4.7 release
  • This enhancement enables Different Email Types to be configured for different purposes such as emailing the following: Purchase Orders to Suppliers, To Accounts, To Operators, Reports, Receipts from SmartPOS, and Statements to Members
  • Send Mode option is configured at Supplier Maintenance
    • The Supplier Send Mode drop-down allows for a default option to be selected which will determine the Email Address/es that will be used when sending Supplier Communications from Bepoz
  • External Contacts List is configured
    • This component allows for maintaining lists of contacts that are external to the Organisation and which can then be used for messaging in bulk where applicable
    • For example, after being set up, an External Contact List can be set for a Supplier; then, upon posting a Purchase Order to that Supplier, the email message will be sent to all Contacts within the List

Key Features

Default Email Override Setup

  • Quick and easy configuration within the Messaging & Billing section under Venue Maintenance where email settings such as Email Server, Email Name, etc. are configured with valid data
  • The Email Name, Password, From, and Signature configured here is what will be used when an Override is not being used
  • Since Default Email Overrides are set up at the Venue level, not all Email Types can be configured for Remote Venues

Supplier Send Mode Setup

  • Ability to email Purchase Orders to multiple email addresses so that PO's can be sent to the central Orders department as well to the Supplier representatives
    • This allows the users to set and select either the Default Supplier email addresses or the Venue specific Supplier email address for Supplier communications like sending Purchase Orders 
    • This enables an Organisation to send Supplier Communications to multiple email addresses at the same time which is often necessary to send POs to multiple Supplier representatives or contacts.

External Contact List

  • External Contact List is the component of Messaging Menu
    • This component allows to add, edit, delete and maintain the contact list by providing the required contact details
