- In Outlook, after composing an Email, click Send to CRM.
- In Outlook, select one or more Email messages and click Record to History.

more Email messages from Outlook to an Infor CloudSuite CRM contact,
account, lead, opportunity or ticket detail view. If you drop an Email
on the Attachments tab, the Email is added as an attachment,
but is not recorded to history.
Note: If you are on version 8.3.0.03 or earlier and the option to enable drag and drop is selected, you will be prompted to add attachments for the email, rather than create a history record. Provide a description for the .msg file and the .json files and click OK.
- If the Email contains any attachments, click Yes to save any attachments to the Attachments tab.
-
Depending on your Email log to history options and the records
associated with the Email you are logging to history, any of these windows are
displayed:
- Duplicate Record(s) Found: Select the appropriate contacts or leads and click OK.
- Select Contacts: Select which contacts or
leads should have associated history items created, and click
OK.
The information will be added to the History tab for the selected contact or lead.
- Record(s) not Found: You must add the contact or lead to Infor CloudSuite CRM before the Email can be associated as a history record.
- Quick Complete: Click Individually to complete each Email history record separately or use the information boxes to enter history for multiple records.
- Complete- Email: Use the window to record information about a completed Email.
