Create Email Notification 

To create an email notification:
  1. Navigate to Setup > Automation > Email Notifications and click Create New.
  2. Enter the following details, then click Save:
    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 limits for the CC email addresses are 7/email notification in the Free edition and 12/email notifications in the Standard and Professional edition.

      BCC: The email addresses of the persons who should be copied in the email but will not be visible to other recipients.
      The limits for the BCC email addresses are 7/email notification in the Free edition and 12/email notifications in the Standard and Professional edition.

      In the To, CC, and BCC fields, all the recipients that you can select across modules will be listed. The email address of the active users will also be listed. 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.

    5. A Subject for the email notification
      Click +Insert to add placeholder values. From the dropdown, select a module and a field value you want to use. The placeholders will get replaced with actual values when the email is sent.
    6. Select an Email Template
