Instructions
System Emails are automatically generated messages that Neon CRM can send to constituents. These messages are sent in response to a constituent performing some sort of interaction with Neon CRM. While Neon CRM has a predetermined list of automatic system emails, you can configure the content that will appear in each message by building your own versions.
Types of System Emails
The different types of default system emails are broken out into six categories on the System Emails Page
Note: All email versions listed may not be available, depending on your Neon CRM subscription.
