Welcome to System (welcome.txt) ​

The Welcome to System email is sent to users when they initially enroll in your system.  To activate the Welcome to System template, the Welcome.txt file must be placed in the same directory that contains your HTML template files (i.e. wconnect/ace).

You may edit the email text (i.e. "Thank you for creating an account", "We look forward ...", etc.).  However, do not edit the template tags.  They must remain as entered on the template or they will not work properly.

The following template tags are used on the welcome.txt template:

TagDescription
poName.FullName()Display the new user's full name in the email.
poName.oData.fieldnameDisplay other data from the new user's name record using the poName.oData.fieldname template tag where fieldname is the name of the field you want to include. E.g. poName.oData.nmcity displays the user's City in the email.
pcYourIDCan be used to display the user's ID number. For organizations using computer generated ID numbers, the following expression will display the entire ID number:
Your Student ID number is: pcYourID
config.cHelpPhoneIncludes the Help Phone as specified in the HelpPhone in setting.
config.cHelpEmailIncludes the Help Email as specified in the HelpEmail ini setting.
getwordnum(config.cOrgName,1,[;])Includes the Organization Name as specified in the OrgName ini setting.
-END-Tells ACEweb where the email message text ends.  Only text and template tags placed above the -END- tag will be included in the email.
