System Emails
System emails are email documents that will be automatically sent when a specific system action occurs, such as a new club sign up, a new order is placed, etc. These documents should already be included in your Vin65 template or have been setup for you by your designer [Designer System Email Documentation].
When orders, club signups, etc. are placed on your website the notification email address(es) for your website will receive an email from notifications@winedirect.com. The address(es) setup to receive these notifications cannot be changed via the admin panel. If you require a change to you notification email address(es) please contact support@winedirect.com. A WineDirect support representative would be happy to update the address(es) for you.

Locating System Emails
System emails can be found under the Email Documents section of the admin panel and will be included with other email documents that you have created such as newsletters or event emails.
1. Navigate to Contacts > Email Documents.
2. Expand the Advanced search parameters menu.
3. From the Email Category drop down select System Emails.
Completing these steps will allow you to filter for all of your system emails at once.
Editing System Emails
You cannot create new system emails or alter how or when they are triggered, but you can change the some of the wording included within the emails.
You can edit most of the text contained within a system email. Some information will be populated automatically in the email when the email is triggered and sent automatically, i.e. the order details that show within an Order Confirmation email.
System emails received by the customer will have all of their contact information populated. However the email received by admin panel users will display this information as the auto-populating data tags (E.g. //first name// //last name//).
Follow the steps below to edit your system emails:
1. Navigate to Contacts > Email Documents.
2. Expand the Advanced search parameters menu.
3. From the Email Category drop down select System Emails.
4. Open your System Email that you would like to edit.
- For general information including the send email address and friendly name (sender name) you will want edit the General Information on the document.
- To edit the text contained within the email you will want to edit the content under the Document section. Please note that you will not be able to edit the content within the auto-populating data tags [i.e. //ClubBlob// ]. For more information on these tags please see the Auto-Populated Data Documentation.
The auto-populating data tags for system emails, such as //ClubBlob// in the club confirmation, will only populate these areas if they are sent by the admin panel after a person signs up for a club, places an order, etc. If you try to use these tags in a separate email document or send a system email via the Send Mass Email tool, these will not populate with data. When they are sent out by the platform after an action (order, signup, etc.), the system has a specific order or club membership number to assign to this data. When sent from the mass email the platform cannot select which club membership or order as there may be more than one in a customer's file
