Entering email sent from information

If your company uses the e-timecard manual email notifications program, or if users request a temporary password from the web application, you can enter "sent from" information on the Parameter Setup screen.

• In the Email sender address field, enter the email address of your company’s e-timecard administrator. The program returns undeliverable, valid email to this address.

• In the Email sender name field, enter the full name of the user whose email address you enter for Email sender address. This name appears in the "from" line of all emails that the email notifications program sends, as well as emails that deliver temporary passwords to users.

By default, the automatic email programs in e-timecard and e-xpense do not use these fields. Instead, when the system sends automatic emails it uses the employee or approver’s email address in the employee record.

If you wish, you can turn on the Use email sender address for all emails check box to send all e-timecard and e-xpense emails from the address that you enter on this screen. You will find this useful if you have employees on military bases where a firewall filters emails that have addresses that exist within your network yet originate outside the firewall. Turning on this check box ensures that emails make it to their intended recipients.
