Auto Email Notifications for Warnings

Introduction

There is now the option to have a warning letter sent to those who have received a violation marked as a warning. Violations marked as a warning have had their fine amount waived.

Setup

There is a new setting used to enable the sending of warning notices.

It can be found on the System Settings page.

Once enabled, warning notices will be sent when the system task is run.

Template

The layout of the warning letter can be edited on the Email Templates page, found under the menu tree:

  • System Configuration -> Content & Designs -> Email Templates

Tasks can be accessed from the View System Task Logs page, located under the Tools menu.

Like other system tasks, New Violation Notices is set to run at a scheduled time while it is enabled. 

It can also be run immediately by pressing the run button.

While the setting Send Notices for Warnings is enabled, this task will include warning violations in its output. When disabled, the task will only send notices out for violations issued with a fine.
