Email Definition


Definition Settings:

  1. Set the field from which the destination Email Address comes from.
  2. Set the mail server’s address, such as: mail.mycompany.com
  3. Then you may set default return address, subject and message. You can also pass data to these fields using the Interaction Manager instead of setting defaults. One powerful feature of this e-mail client is the ability to have a pull-down list of any number of pre-set answers to questions. You can choose a pre-set answer and have the body of the message automatically populate the Message field.
  4. Layout. The Email object will have To: and Subject: fields at the top, the data fields at the right for easy merging and the message body in the middle. A Send button is found below the message body. At run time, the user has the option to click on any field in the list and have it be automatically merged into the body of the message when it is sent.
  5. The E Mail Return Address field can be entered by default in Definition, by hand at run time or drawn automatically from the JDPUser account of the person that logged in. Use the Interaction Manager and the EMail1Ctl component methods to manipulate these values.
