Bulk transaction email can be generated from scriptable templates and can include attachments. Sending transaction email in bulk is useful if, for example, you want to send reminder email for multiple transactions for which payments have not been received. You enter search criteria to generate a list of transactions and then select which transactions you want to send email for.
To send transaction email in bulk:
-
Go to Lists > Mass Update > Mass Updates.
-
Click Transactions to expand the mass update options.
-
Click Bulk Email.
The Mass Update page opens.
-
On the Criteria subtab, define the transactions you want to send email for using the Filter dropdown list. For example, you can create a list of all unpaid invoices by doing the following:
-
Select Type in the Filter column.
-
In the popup window, select Invoice, and click Set.
-
In the next row, select Status in the Filter column.
-
In the popup window, select Invoice:Open, and click Set.
-
-
On the Recipients subtab, select which email address to use and the order in which the email fields are searched.
For example, in the screenshot below NetSuite first searches for an email address in the transaction record. If none is found, NetSuite searches for an email address in the customer record. If none is found, the email address in the contact record is used.
