    can two email addresses be associated with one employee

    We have a need for an employee to receive his workorders at two different email addresses .  We have tried using a comma and a semicolon and both would not work.

    Any ideas?

    No, that's not a standard feature.  But you could add that through customization:

    1. Add a new field called secondaryemail to the Users table.

    2. Create a simple screen based on the User's table.  It could be as simple as having only a grid with the fields you need, and making sure it supports edit.

    3. On the button that emails the work orders, include the secondaryemail for that employee as a CC to the email.

     

    It's Method, so you aren't stuck in a box of only being able to use standard features - you can extend Method to do what you want.

    Thanks Paul.

    I believe that I have everything done with the exception of number 3.

    I am not sure how to implement the last instruction.......

    How do we input what the secondary email?

    How do I implement your instruction to number 3?

    I have watched the tutorials on customization but this seems a little out of the scope of what they explained very nicely.

     

     

    Thanks for your help

    Hi wmcfall,

    To assist you with question 3, I recommend that you look at the `Send Email` action which is very similar to the `Email Work Orders` button within the `FieldService_WorkOrderList` screen.

    If you need further assistance with how to make the action work for you, we have a consulting service that is available, and we can configure that button for you during your consulting time. 

    I hope that guides you to the right direction.
