Contacts.

Maintain contact list for a selected customer using tab Contacts.

Here are the rules for emailing contacts in Customers, Branches and Suppliers. Each item is referring to a Contact Category.

- 'invoice' for invoices, and statement and receipts
- 'delivery' for deliveries
- 'order' for orders and quotations
- 'general' for everything

EVERY reports will send an email to everybody from the current and the main company will match those criteria except for statement and receipts.

Example the invoice report will send an email to (if existing) - branch.invoice - branch.general - customer.invoice - customer.general.

For statement and receipt only the first person (in that order) will receive the email.

So, a contact set as general on the customer settings, will receive every emails except from statement and receipt (except if nobody else get this email).

To summarize, general mean all and customers receive email for every branch.

Tips and Tricks

If you send out Customer Statements from the Report Center by email, it is important that you put an email on the customer (not only the branch).

You can then start a search by pressing a space in the Customer List, or use the edit box in front of the list if such one is available. Now enter fragment of Customer name and press tab.
