In order for the automatic email notifications to be sent the Email Server Settings will need to be configured in Email Server Settings.

Email Bodies

To edit the Email Body, click the Edit icon (Pencil.png).

Email Bodies allow you to modify the text that is in an automated email notification. To insert system or user fields into the email bodies select the desired field in the field selection list which is displayed on the right of the email body and click the Add button (20px). When the email is generated it will insert the data from this field into the email body. For example, in the Email Body for Request is Assigned (Notify Analyst), you may want to include the sys_requesttype_id (Request Type) and the sys_problemdesc (Problem Description) fields. See figure below for a sample email body.
