    I think it is certainly possible although I don't think it can be done without writing your own code and using cron jobs, a custom .php script and a mailing class such as phpmailer.

    This would follow under workflow I believe in the pro version but OS doesn't have that functionality. I believe the older versions (i.e. 4.5 ) had a custom workflow module but I dont know about it for 5.0.

    I am still just figuring this all out myself so hoepfully some of the more seasoned members can shed more light on the subject.

    Hi, I am new to SugarCRM. I have installed Ver. 4.5.1i

    Wanted to ask the way to setup sending of birthday email to customers on the date of their birthday.
    I went through the campaigns, but couldn't find an option to schedule as per the b'day of the contact.
    If there's a separate thread which explains this issue, pl. let me know. Thanks.

    Hi, all.

    We had developed a feature which send an email containing a link to a ProspectList including all Contacts, Prospects, Leads and Users which has birthday in one of these 3 conditions:

    Daily birthday: x days before a specified birthday
    Weekly birthday: all birthday at the next week,
    Monthly birthday: all birthday in the current month.

    Cheers

    Hi André,
    do you release that feature under an Open Source License?
    What do you think the cookie monster eats ?
