Creating and storing a template for use with user instructions


As an administrator, you can use a text editor to define templates by creating a text file with an extension of .arm, and then attaching the .arm file to an entry in the AR System Email Templates form.

To create templates for use with user instructions

  1. Use a text editor to define a template, and name the file with an .arm extension.
    The following example is a template file (IN_Install_AllUrgent.arm) that queries all urgent records in the TestSecurityForm form.

    Schema: TestSecurityForm
    Server: polycarp
    Login: Demo
    Password:
    Action: Query
    Format: Full
    Header Template: Header_Urgent.html
    Result Template: Default Content
    Qualification: 'Status' <= 2 AND 'Impact' = 3

    A template can contain one or more instructions. For more information, see Creating-and-exporting-mail-templates.

    Success

    Best practice

    Test the template by sending an email to the incoming mailbox and see if it returns the expected results.

  2. In the Mid Tier, open the AR System Email Templates form in New mode.

  5. Save your changes.
    Your UrgentRequests template is created and now stored.
