Forward a Correspondence Item by Email

The email functionality on the Correspondence tool allows you to send an email outside of the emails that are automatically generated such as when a correspondence item is created. See Who receives correspondence item emails and push notifications to learn more about automatic correspondence emails.

• Required User Permissions:

  • 'Standard' level permissions or higher on the item's correspondence type.

• Additional Information:

  • If a person is missing from the recipient selection list, add them to the Project level Directory with 'Read Only' or higher level permissions for the correspondence type to email/forward it . If you don't have permission to add users to the Project Directory, ask a member of your team who is responsible for Directory management to add them.
    Note: The newly added user does NOT have to accept the invitation to join the project before they can be selected from the recipient list.
