Creating a Sender Template

A sender template is the content of an email received by the recipient.

You can create a sender template or use the built-in public templates.

Precautions

When the Email message service is enabled, the operations personnel configure if the industry the enterprise belongs to is classified as a sensitive industry.

  • Enterprise is in a sensitive industry: After an email template is created, it is automatically submitted for approval and can be used only after being approved by operations personnel.
  • Enterprise is in a non-sensitive industry: After an email template is created, it is automatically approved (not being approved by operations personnel).

My Template

You can create a sender template as required. You can also filter the created sender templates by Template Name, Template ID, Status, and Created.

When you move the cursor to the new template, the Preview, Delete, and Copy menus are displayed.
