Customizing Leave Management Emails

Quadrant can automatically send emails to pre-defined recipients when certain actions are performed in Leave Management, for example, when a leave request is submitted or approved. Managers with sufficient security access rights have the ability to customize the layout and contents of the email templates.

The Leave Management email templates are divided into two types:

  5. Select a token for the Subject line (Optional).
    The Leave Management email functionality gives you the option of selecting a token to add a subject line to the email. The subject line is limited to 255 characters in Outlook. If the token selected creates a subject line that is longer than 255 characters, it will be truncated.
  6. Edit existing text or tokens, or add new content in the Message Body pane.
    Any of the tokens on the pre-configured layout can be removed or replaced with new ones. Any of the text can be changed or new text added to the layout, simply by placing the cursor and typing.
  7. To view the layout as HTML, click the HTML button. By default, the Emails page open in Design Mode, and the content in the Message Body pane is WYSIWYG.
  8. Click Save to save changes made to the template.
    When a change has been made to a template, the Save button is enabled.
