Create a new template from scratch


Step 1 - Toggle to the custom tab and click "New template."


Step 2 - Select template type based on the usage of the template. Different types will be accessible for different purposes. 


Step 3 - Add a meaningful name and a description to the template. The name will be displayed when selecting which template to use. 


Step 4 - Add the text you would like to communicate through email. Don't forget the dynamic element to customize the content depending on the recipient, measure, and organizational unit.


Step 5 - English and Swedish are available as languages. Depending on the recipients' language settings on the platform, they will receive one of the two versions. This is, however optional.  


Step 6 - Save the changes made. 


Language settings


Depending on which language setting the receiver of the email has configured, the email will be sent out in the configured language.


The emails can be sent out through the Suppliers overview, Surveys overview, and Follow-up overview.


Saving Email Templates with Multiple Translations


When creating or saving an email template, translations are handled differently depending on whether they are enabled or disabled:

  • Enabled translations must contain text. If any enabled translation is left empty, you cannot save the template.
  • Disabled translations (removed from the template) do not require any content.


Example


If you open a custom template, the English translation is enabled by default.

  • If you do not want an English version, you must remove it from the translation tab.
  • Once removed, you can save your German (or other language) template without any issues.


Tip


You can include as many languages as you like in one email. However, every enabled translation must be filled in before saving. If you don’t need a certain translation, remove it so the tab is empty (as shown in the example image).
