Creating Email Jobs

In Document Output, email jobs are used to substitute manual execution of routine tasks with automation. The tasks associated with an email job will be sent to the Document Queue when the email job is run.

To create a new email job, follow these steps:

  1. Choose the Search icon, enter Email Jobs, and then choose the related link.
  2. In the action bar, select New.
  3. In the new line, in the Job No. column, enter a descriptive name for the email job.
  4. In the Type column, select Email Template.
  5. In the Email Template Code column, select a template code.
  6. Optional: In the Table Filter field, add filters to specify in detail which document to process.

    Selecting Disable Check for sent earlier will resend the same emails continuously if no additional filters are applied.

  7. Optional: In Starting Time and Ending Time, set an interval to limit a job to only run within a set timeframe regardless of how often the job queue entry is running. Individual days can be selected in which the job should be allowed to run. If none are selected, the job will run every day.
  8. In the Enabled column, select the checkbox to enable the job.

Document Output is automatically configured with two standard email jobs:

  • Queue dispatches all documents from the Document Queue.
  • Delete-Log will delete log entries in accordance with the settings on the corresponding email template.

Tipp

Using table filters will help you define conditions for email jobs. Common filter options are Status, Posting Date, Document Type and CDO Handled.
