How to add email communication as process notes in WMS

Why attach communication to a process?

Most processes require users to exchange information so that they can complete their WorkItems. In general this communication is done via email, however it sits in each person's inbox and if you're in the process and want to know what was exchanged you would need to reach out to the users... this is not scalable and can result in a lot of wasted time and effort!

In order to address this we've devised a simple, easy to understand way to attach all email correspondence for a process to that process!

How to add email communication as a note to a process

  • Send or respond to an email from a user including in the To or Cc: wl2.0@eims.campaigntracking.com
  • In the subject line include the Process ID for the given process and prefix with a hashtag e.g. #219030
