Hi

I want to automate sending emails already on order validation.

Under Home → Setup → Emails → Email templates
I’ve created an email template with Type of template set to Sales orders. and it has been set to default.

Under Home → Setup → Modules/Applications → NOTIFICATIONS ON BUSINESS EVENT

I’ve selected the template for “Sales order validated”

Further down in LIST OF AUTOMATIC FIXED NOTIFICATIONS, I can not change much. I can set the Recipient field, but can I set it to THIRDPARTY_CODE_CLIENT ? Does not seem like it, that email it says “Email is incorrect”.

That same place also has this Note

Note:
* Go to the tab "Notifications" of a user to add or remove notifications for users
** Go to the tab "Notifications" of a third party to add or remove notifications for contacts/addresses

Okay, so if I go to my thirdparties, select one, and finds the Notifications tab I can add a notification there, but I need to have a Contact on this thirdparty EVEN though I have defined an email address on the thirdparty. But okay, I can automate the creation of a contact at the same time as I create a thirdparty.

But finally, here’s the issue for me at the moment. How do I automate creating a notification? Because it seems to be a manual process, and I want to either automate this, or just set a blanket company wide setting that emails the thirdparty when the order has been validated.

Hi, Linking onto this as unable to start a new post but I am also having issues with this module.

I have manged to setup so it does auto send an email template based on someone making an invoice as paid but one one system which is running 16.0.1 it doesn’t send using the template and just send the generic email with a link to the invoice.

On another system I am building using 21.0.1 I have the error “Failed to send mail with smtps lib to HOST=mail.domain.com, PORT=587 - Sender address ‘’ invalid” even thou I am able to send normal emails to clients using the “send email” button on the invoice page. Has anyone had this issue before or maybe know how to fix it as so far its just failing when I am trying to use the auto send function with notifications on business. Many Thanks in advance.
