Custom mail templates for notifications

Mail templates are used to send email messages to requesters and approvers.

A mail template consists of general master data such as target format, importance, or mail notification confidentiality, and one or more mail definitions. Mail text is defined in several languages in the mail template. This ensures that the language of the recipient is taken into account when the email is generated.

In One Identity Manager, there is a Mail Template Editor to simplify writing notifications. You can use the Mail Template Editor to create and edit mail texts in WYSIWYG mode.
