Email Inbox
Once an email account is added, the email inbox will be accessible.
Running a business involves many transactional email exchanges with parties like Customers and Suppliers and other members within the company. Email Inbox feature allows you to pull all your business emails into your OneOfficeERP account. Enabling access to business emails with other transactional details makes OneOfficeERP a single platform for accessing all business information in one place.
In OneOfficeERP, you can configure Email Inbox for each System User. Following are the detailed steps to configure Email Inbox for a User.
1. Create a User
You can configure an Email Inbox for a System User only. Hence ensure that you have added yourself and your colleagues as a User and assigned them required permissions.
To know how to add a new User, go to the User page.
2. Create an Email Domain
If you are using OneOffice Productivity as well, you can skip this section. We have integrated your email accounts for you into the ERP.
Email Domain for the following Services is available out-of-the-box and you can directly proceed to create an Email Account. Know more about creating an Email Domain here.
- Gmail
- Yahoo
- Sparkpost
- SendGrid
- Outlook.com
- Yandex.mail
To be able to send and receive emails into your OneOfficeERP account from other email services (like WebMail or Gmail), you should set up an Email Domain master. In this master, email gateway details like SMTP Address, Port No., IMAP/POP3 address details are captured. If you have ever configured a local email client (like Outlook), Email Domain master requires details to be fed similarly.
To add new Email Domain, go to:
Home > Settings > Emails > Email Domain > New
Know more about Email Domains here. Once you have configured an Email Domain for your Email Service, it will be used for creating Email Accounts for all the Users in your OneOfficeERP account.
3. Email Account
Create an Email Account based on the Email ID of the User. For each User whose email account is to be integrated with OneOfficeERP, an Email Account master should be created for it.
If you are creating an Email Account for your colleague who's Email Password is unknown to you, then check field "Awaiting Password". As per this setting, a User (for whom Email Account is created) will get a prompt to enter email password when accessing his/her OneOfficeERP Account.
If you are creating an Email Account for Email Inbox of a User, then leave Append To field as blank.
Read Email Account documentation for more details on how to setup.
4. Linking Email Account in the User master
Once an Email Account is created for a User, select that Email Account in the User. This will ensure that emails pulled from the said Email ID will accessible only to this User in your OneOfficeERP account.
You can link multiple emails with one user.
5. Using Email Inbox
