    1. A Name for the email notification
    2. Module: The module for which you want to create the email notification
    3. From: Choose a sender email address.
      If there are no sender email addresses, then the email will be sent from noreply@sender.zohofsm.com.
    4. To: Select the recipient email addresses
      The limits for the recipient email addresses are 7/email notification in the Free edition and 12/email notifications in the Standard and Professional edition.

      If you select the checkbox Send this notification as a Single Mass Email with all recipients displayed, the email will be sent as a single bulk email. When this checkbox is selected, the CC and BCC fields will be displayed.

      CC: The email addresses of the persons who should be copied in the email.

The value Service Resources denote the email addresses of the users assigned to a service appointment. Since a maximum of 5, 10, and 10 users can be assigned to a service appointment in the Free, Standard, and Professional editions respectively, when you select Service Resources for the To, CC, or BCC fields, then the number of recipients selected is considered to be 5, 10, and 10 in the Free, Standard, and Professional editions respectively. Email notification will not be sent if the service appointment is assigned to a crew.
