About Email Account data instances

You typically use the Email Accelerator to create e-mail accounts. E-mail accounts have key parts: account name and account type.

Field

Description

Type

Select Email Account from the SysAdmin category.

Account Name

Identify this instance with a name. Begin the name with a letter and use only alphanumeric and dash characters to identify the name of a work pool (class group) used in the application Normal flow processing uses the standard activity Work-.getEmailSenderInfo to send e-mail. This activity looks for an e-mail account instance with an Account Name that matches the class group of the work object.

Account Type

Enter the literal string Notify so the Work-.getEmailSenderInfo activity can find this account.

Tip If the activity does not find an email account that matches the application's work pool, it then tries to use the standard email account named Default.Notify. Therefore, be sure to also configure the Default.Notify account so the activity will always find an account.
