Sending emails to multiple users

[mptaszek]

Hi,

Is there any way to send a notification email to more than one user in the same time? For example, when creating an opportunity I would like to send an email to the assignee AND always to the members of the marketing department.

If it is a problem I can use some distribution list alias which will group marketing ppl into one email address. However, I still need the ability to automatically CC them.

Should I look for any plugin/unofficial patch/some place in the configuration?

If you have Pro/ENT then you can just select the Marketing Department team and send the alert to them as well as the assigned to user.

No, unfortunately we are using Open Source edition.

Thanks for the advice though

How are you triggering the alert or is it an on assignment alert?

[mptaszek]

The alert/email should be automatically sent when the new opportunity is created (or might also be triggered on assignment if it is the only way to do it).

I think that the notify on assignment is the only way to alert in the CE version. It would be worth searching the Sugar Forge for addons that will allow workflow management, etc..
