Following the email, you can access a report that contains information about the email and its successful delivery to customers.

Orders for Purchase

You can send out multiple purchase orders to your suppliers and vendors at the same time. Internal approvals are quick and simple because you can send POs to respective department heads for approval and then send them to respective suppliers after approval.
This significantly reduces the time, resources, and labour needed to generate and distribute each PO to the appropriate stakeholders.

Orders Pending

All open/pending sales orders can be dispatched to the sales team for quick closure using an automated workflow.

Routing of Work Orders

Work order workflows can be automated by configuring emails sent after specific processes or the entire workflow is completed. Depending on the activity type, these Emails may be sent to the shop floor personnel in charge of the next task or the manager.

Notifications of ACH Payments

Due Invoices
