Mail Merge Reports

Creating Mail Merge Templates

Different mail merge letters may be created in the User Defined Information Module, using the Mail Merge Letter tool under the Reporting sub-menu.

Click on the Add button on the toolbar to add a new body, fill in the description and the body of the letter. The body contents are in a rich text format and may include different font styles and appearances.

A special type of mail merge report is used for the Required Dates Coming Due report.
