Email Template

Users can apply their own style and format to their email notifications. Until now, the notifications sent to the end customers were the ones set in the BSS which had the distributor’s branding. As long as Resellers own their own storefront, the notifications can be customized according to their needs.

Select the Photograph Icon to add an image to the header.

Select the T Icon to format the footer text.

For the Header and Footer style, you may select the respective Paint Bucket Icon to change the background color. Select the color, and the Droplet Icon to make the background transparent.

The Header and Footer setting will be applied to all Reseller available Notifications which are displayed on the Notifications page.

Neither the header or footer are required. If the reseller does not want to set a header or a footer for their notification, the header section on the Notification template preview will be used. When the notification is sent, no header or footer section will be displayed.

Save your choices by selecting Save.

Notifications List

Go to Settings, then Notifications and select the Notifications tab. There are two groups of notifications: Customers and Orders.

Select a group to expand it and view the available notifications. Each notification allows you to enable or disable it.

Select the Pencil Icon to go to the Notification Details page and edit the content of the notification.

The following table shows the default notifications and their default content:
