The Universal Email Update utility provides a solution to a problem that didn't exist just a decade ago.
Email Addresses are now entered almost everywhere within MKMS
Hundreds, perhaps thousands of Email Addresses are stored within the MKMS application.
These Email Addresses may be stored in the Subscriber, Employee, Dealer, People to Call, Prospect, etc. tables.
They are used by the Communication Module for automatically emailing Reports, to selectively Email various Reports manually, and for reference when creating Emails manually.
But Email Addresses change!
When an individual provides a different Email Address, that Email Address may be stored in more than one location, and all of those locations may not be obvious to, or known by the User who is updating those records.
The solution to this problem is the Universal Email Update utility.
This Replace this Email Addresses with this Email Addresses utility provides a simple to use dialog.
To access this Universal Email Update utility, from the Main Menu Choose Maintenance and then Select Universal Email Update.
