Creating a Custom E-mail List
It is not uncommon that you may want to send an e-mail to a specific group of students in your school. You can do so by completing the following steps:
1.) Select the e-mail envelope icon at the top of your screen.
2.) Select "Send e-mail to group" at the bottom left of the e-mail generator screen.
3.) Select the group that you wish to send an e-mail to.
Groups include:
- Existing Rosters for all schools. An e-mail would be sent to all students on the selected roster
- Schools. This would send to all students at that location
- Membership Type. An e-mail would be sent to all students on that membership type.
- Rank Set. An e-mail would be sent to all students with the associated rank.
- Demographics. This would include all children or all adults, as defined in your organizational settings.
- Status. An e-mail would be sent to all students listed as active or inactive.
You can create an e-mail for as general or as specific as you would like by combining multiple filters. By selecting "Details" under the number of e-mails sent you will be able to see who the recipients are of the e-mail based on the criteria that you have selected. Similarly, by selecting "Details" Under "People Without E-mails" you will see a list of individuals who meet the criteria but do not have an e-mail address on file.
4.) Once your filters are selected, enter the subject and body of the e-mail to your students and select "Send" at the bottom right corner of your screen.
Deferred
A deferred e-mail is an e-mail that you would like to schedule to send at a later date/time. If looking to schedule your e-mail, rather than sending immediately, be sure to check the "deferred" option and select the date and time you wish to defer the e-mail to. Deferred e-mails will be added to your pending e-mail queue until the requested date and time, at which point, they will automatically send.
