You can manage system email accounts and perform such operations as sending emails from system email accounts and receiving emails to system email accounts; you can also schedule these operations. ## Processing incoming emails In Visma Net, you can activate automatic processing of incoming emails for each system email account. This automatic processing includes forwarding incoming emails to employees based on email history tracked by the system. For details, see: [About processing incoming mail](/visma-net-erp/help/email/configure-email-accounts/about-processing-incoming-mail/). ## Using personal email addresses for customer management For prompt communication with contacts, employees can use their personal email accounts registered with the system. The system analyse email history and automatically forwards incoming emails to the email addresses of all employees that were involved in case processing. ## Using email templates In Visma Net, you can create and maintain a virtually unlimited number of email and notification templates. Email and notification templates are usually created for specific types of recipients (contacts, mailing list members, or campaign members) on particular subjects, such as sales or purchase orders and cash transactions. These templates can contain place-holders, which the system replaces with actual information when it generates emails for each recipient of the type. Files attached to the templates are sent as email attachments. For further details, see: [About notification templates](/visma-net-erp/help/email/manage-emails/about-notification-templates/). ## Sending documents electronically Many outgoing emails are electronic versions of documents sent to customers and suppliers. With Visma Net, you can define the mailing settings for customers and suppliers, which will be used to send documents to them by email. (You can continue to print documents for sending them via postal services to customers and suppliers who do not want to receive documents electronically.) Also, you can configure these emails to be sent to employees who work with specific suppliers or customers. For more information, see [About predefined mailings for customers and suppliers](/visma-net-erp/to-be-deleted/online-help/p2p/ap/ap303000-predefined-mailings-con/). ## Using other functionalities and options You can also do the following: + Temporarily suspend all **send** and **receive** operations at any time + Archive old emails Configure email accounts /visma-net-erp/help/email/configure-email-accounts section In Visma Net, you can create and configure system email accounts that can be used to centrally send mass emails, and you can schedule the sending and receiving of the emails. 2026-02-19T17:09:06+01:00 # Configure email accounts In Visma Net, you can create and configure system email accounts that can be used to centrally send mass emails, and you can schedule the sending and receiving of the emails.

For more information: [System email accounts (SM204002)](/visma-net-erp/help/email/email-windows/system-email-accounts-sm204002/). In Visma Net, you can configure and manage system email accounts by using the [System email accounts (SM204002)](/visma-net-erp/help/email/email-windows/system-email-accounts-sm204002/) window. You can create as many accounts as you may need, each serving a different purpose, for instance, one account for communications with your customer support department, and another account for sending newsletters. For each system email account, you specify the outgoing mail server, the incoming mail server (optional), and the protocol to be used. Also, you must specify ports, login information for servers of both types, and the type of encrypted connection (if required by the server). For any system account, you can enable processing of incoming mail and select processing options that define how emails received to the account should be processed, such as whether to create a case for each email message or a new lead record (for details, see: [About processing incoming mail](/visma-net-erp/help/email/configure-email-accounts/about-processing-incoming-mail/)). Also, you can specify the types of attachments that are permitted, if attachments are permitted at all. You can allow the deletion of processed emails or forbid it (if your organisation requires emails to be kept for a particular period of time, for instance). If needed, you can set up automatic confirmation of received emails or automatic replies to unassigned emails. To make it faster for users to select a system email account for sending emails in the related windows, you can select one of the system accounts as the default system email account by using the [Email preferences (SM204001)](/visma-net-erp/help/email/email-windows/email-preferences-sm204001/) window.

About processing incoming mail /visma-net-erp/help/email/configure-email-accounts/about-processing-incoming-mail page In Visma Net, you can activate automatic processing of incoming emails individually for each system email account. 2026-02-19T17:09:06+01:00 # About processing incoming mail In Visma Net, you can activate automatic processing of incoming emails individually for each system email account. In Visma Net, you can activate automatic processing of incoming emails individually for each system email account. Only the emails received by the system accounts can be processed. The basic functionality, which requires no additional configuration, includes forwarding incoming emails to employees based on the email history tracked by the system. Depending on your business, the mail you receive through Visma Net may consist of requests for information, emails related to customer contracts, or emails received from contacts as replies to emails sent during specific marketing campaigns. You can configure incoming mail processing so that based on an incoming email, the system creates a case, a lead, or an activity associated with an existing lead or contact, and attaches the email to the created entity as a related activity. You can configure the processing of incoming mail differently on each of the system email accounts. You can also specify an email assignment map, which the system will use when it cannot assign incoming emails based on email history. ## Activation of incoming mail processing For each system account, you can choose whether to activate the processing of incoming emails. You can activate it by selecting the required account in the [System email accounts (SM204002)](/visma-net-erp/help/email/email-windows/system-email-accounts-sm204002/) window, and then selecting the **Activate incoming mail processing** check box on the **Incoming mail processing** tab. Before you activate this processing, make sure that email addresses are specified for all employees in either the [Employees (EP203000)](/visma-net-erp/help/organisation-structure/organisation-structure-windows/employees-ep203000/) window or the [Users (SM201010)](/visma-net-erp/help/access-management/user-security/user-security-windows/users-sm201010/) window. ## Stages of automatic processing The system processes incoming emails by using a built-in scenario that can be divided into two major parts: the basic part, which is executed whenever processing is enabled for the account; and the optional part, which you can tailor to fit your needs. The basic part includes forwarding incoming emails to employees based on the email history tracked by the system. The optional part includes the following stages, which you can configure by using the **Incoming mail processing** tab of the [System email accounts (SM204002)](/visma-net-erp/help/email/email-windows/system-email-accounts-sm204002/) window: + **Initial processing**: You can configure the system to confirm the receipt of incoming emails by sending replies based on specific templates. + **Main processing**: You can select options corresponding to any of the following actions: + Create a new case for each processed email and attach the email to the case as a related activity. + Attach each processed email to the business account or contact related to the email exchange. + Reply to unassigned emails by using a specific template. + **Final processing**: You can decide whether the system should remove processed messages and whether it should add available source information to the bottom of each processed email. Generally, the subjects for outgoing mass emails are system-generated and contain values from particular contact records, cases, and activities that will help later with processing replies to the emails if addressees do not change the email subjects.

If incoming mail processing is activated for a system email account, before the system forwards incoming emails to a specific employee, it checks whether the employee has an email address specified in the [Employees (EP203000)](/visma-net-erp/help/organisation-structure/organisation-structure-windows/employees-ep203000/) window; if there is no such address, the system uses the email address specified in the [Users (SM201010)](/visma-net-erp/help/access-management/user-security/user-security-windows/users-sm201010/) window. In the [User settings (SM203010)](/visma-net-erp/help/management/management-windows/user-settings-sm203010/) window, you can create a signature, which will be inserted at the end of each email this user sends. The **Email settings** tab provides a text box and a toolbar with tools to format the text of the signature. In the windows used for creating emails, personal email addresses are available for selection to only their owners. Users can use templates for their emails or set up automatic notifications based on specific templates. For details, see: [About notification templates.](/visma-net-erp/help/email/manage-emails/about-notification-templates/) For each system email account, you can manually initiate the processes of sending and receiving mail, or you can set up an automatic schedule for these processes.

In Visma Net, you can archive emails that are too old to be relevant. In the [Email preferences (SM204001)](/visma-net-erp/help/email/email-windows/email-preferences-sm204001/) window, you can enable email archiving by specifying the minimum age of emails to be archived.

Thus, archived emails do not get in your way when you are browsing through incoming or outgoing emails, although you still can search for an archived item, or even perform regular actions, such as **Reply** or **Forward**, on it. Regardless of the settings specified in the [Email preferences (SM204001)](/visma-net-erp/help/email/email-windows/email-preferences-sm204001/) window, you can use the **Archive** action in the window toolbar of the Incoming (A) and Sent emails windows to archive selected emails at any time. Also, you can archive any email that has the **Processed** status by opening it in the [Send (CR306015)](/visma-net-erp/help/common-settings/common-settings-windows/send-cr306015/) window and using the **Archive** action in the window toolbar. After it has been archived, an email associated with a particular entity remains listed on the**Activities**tab of the respective data entry window. Also, if time tracking has been enabled for this email, the invoiceable time spent on this email (if any) will be invoiced to the customer even if the email has been archived. An archived email can be restored from the archive. When it has been restored, the email is again listed in the Incoming (CO409000) and Sent emails window, depending on whether it is an incoming or outgoing email; the status of the email changes back to **Processed**.

This topic provides information about the elements in this window in Visma Net, such as fields, field values, buttons, and check boxes. You use this window to create and edit notification and email templates. Notification and email templates define the look and content of the emails to be sent to employees or customer or supplier contacts. You can insert place-holders or system variables enclosed in double parentheses, such as **((CustomerFullName))**—to use recipients' data to personalise notification emails when they're sent. Placeholders can be used in the email template's body as well as in the email properties, such as **Subject**, **To**, **CC**, and **BCC**. Any template that you want to use as a user welcome template must have four place-holders set up in the following order: **((Company))**, **((Name))**, **((Username))**, and **((Password))**. To see an example, view the **User welcome notification** template, which is the default template to welcome new users to Visma Net. You can include information from document detail lines in notifications by adding a `foreach` loop to the body of the notification template in the HTML format. For instance: You can use the following construction for notifications about sales forecasts: ` Element Description Notification ID The string that uniquely identifies the template. The system generates the identifier automatically based on the value in the Description field. Description Required. A description of the template. From The system email address from which emails generated for this template should be sent. To The email address of the user to receive the email, or a place-holder for the user’s email address.

The window whose elements are used as the source of specific place-holders for this template. You click the magnifier icon in the field to display the site tree and then select the form by its name from the site tree. Window ID

A read-only field that displays the identifier of the window whose elements are used as the source of specific place-holders for this template.

The system fills in the value in this field automatically after you select a value in the Window field.

Locale

The locale that the system uses to apply region-specific settings to the text, dates, and digits in the body of the notification template and to retrieve translations of values needed to replace place-holders in the body according to the language associated with the locale.

The field appears only if multiple system locales are configured in the System locales (SM200550) window.

## Message text area You can create a message by using a WYSIWYG text editor with a text field and toolbar. The toolbar of the text editor has formatting tools similar to the ones provided by many popular text editors.

Password The password to be used to access the email account. The entered characters are masked.
