Choosing your recipients
When you start email from a grid, you can choose whether to:

send the email to the community member on the record you have selected
send the email to the parent of the community member you have selected
send the email to all community members in the grid area
send the email to the parent of each community member in the grid
initially choose all community members in the grid and then edit the list of recipients to delete people from the list or add new ones.

Note: If you select to send it to the parents, the first priority is relationships that have Use Email set. If not, then Synergetic searches for contacts with the Lives With flag set. Only one email is sent, unless the contacts are separate Lives With contacts, in which case they will both receive an email.

Sending emails to a single community member or their parent
To send an email from a grid to a single community member:

Navigate to the grid containing the person you want to email.
This can be a selector grid, tag list, or a grid on a maintenance window.
In the example below, the email will be sent to the selected community member from the debtors selector grid.
Right click on the grid and select Email > Selected Record.

Tip: If you have selected a student and want to email the student's parent instead, select Parent of Selected Record.

The Send Email(s) window is displayed, with the email address of the community member displayed in the To: field.
Update the fields as required.
Click .
The email is sent to the recipient.

Sending emails to all community members in the grid or their parents

Sending emails to some community members in the grid
