Gift Certificate E-Mail Program (H07)

Purpose: Use this screen to specify the program to generate email, rather than printed, gift certificates.

System name field: Enter the name of the program to generate email gift certificates. The system generates an email gift certificate, rather than a document for printing, only when:

• this system control value contains a valid program name; the base program is ECR0250.

• the E-mail gift certificate field on the Work with Order Ship to Properties Screen is selected.

• there is an email address specified for the gift certificate recipient. Depending on the type of recipient for the gift certificate, you can specify the email address on a screen where you:

• work with information on a permanent shipping address for the sold-to customer, such as the Change Customer Ship To Screen (Using, Changing, or Excluding a Shipping Address) or the Create Customer Ship To Screen.

• specify a temporary shipping address for the current order only, such as the Create One Time Ship To Address Screen.

• work with the sold-to customer’s address, such as the First Create Sold To Customer Screen.

If any of the above conditions are not met, the system includes the gift certificate in a document for printing.

Generating the emails: The emails are generated when you complete the Process Gift Certificates Screen (MPGC). By completing this screen, you also print any gift certificates that do not generate email notices as described above.

Order history message: When you generate an email gift certificate, the system writes two order history messages such as the following:

7/12/06 G Gift Certificate (111871) printed. 50.00 EXAMPLE

7/12/06 L Gift Cert to name@example.com. EXAMPLE

 

Note: The system writes a message such as the first line when you generate either a printed or an email gift certificate.

You can review order history messages at the Display Order History Screen in order inquiry or order maintenance.

Sample gift certificate email: Base gift certificate program ECR0250 uses Working with E-Mail Notification Templates (WEMT) to specify the wording of the gift certificate email notice. You can also set up an email template at the entity level as an override; see Email Setup within CWSerenade for more information.
