You can send emails from inFlow without any additional setup. However, if you’d like to customize your email settings, follow the steps in this article. Otherwise, see below for how you can send emails from inFlow orders.

Web

The Action bar at the top of sales orders and any other printable record contains an Email button. Clicking this will load a drop-down menu where you can select which document to email.

Available email fields

• Reply-To: The email address that replies to emails you send through inFlow will be sent to (not shown when using legacy email settings).
• Cc: Click this to add a field where you can add other email addresses that will also receive the email by carbon copy.
• Bcc: Click this to add a field where you can add other email addresses that will also receive the email by blind carbon copy.
• To: The email address of your intended recipient. You may add multiple emails here by separating them with a comma.
• Subject: The subject line of the email to be sent.
• Message: The body of the email to be sent.
• Attachment: The document will automatically be attached in PDF format that is linked in the email (custom documents can only be emailed from inFlow Cloud for Windows).

Additional information

Customer information

The customer’s email address (from the Customer record) will automatically be filled out for Customer Statements and Sales documents or a vendor’s email address for Vendor Statements or Purchase documents. If you change the “To” address, a save icon will appear next to the “To” field, allowing you to save the email address back to the Customer or Vendor record.

For other documents (associated with a Work Order, Stock Transfer, Stock Adjustment, or Count Sheet), clicking the save icon will remember this email address as the default recipient for the current inFlow user and that type of document.

Automatic Cc and Bcc

Cc and Bcc will be automatically filled out if you’ve saved emails into the Default Cc and Default Bcc fields.

Legacy email settings

Emails in inFlow Cloud for Web cannot be sent if your profile is using legacy email settings. For more information about our current and legacy email settings, please see this article.
