Email Automation
Link email templates to tasks so that emails are ready to send at the right moment — or even sent automatically.
Linking an email template
- Click a task to open its detail drawer
- Find the Email section
- Select an email template to link
When the task is due, you can click Send to fire off the pre-written email without composing from scratch.
Auto-send options
In the task drawer, you have two automation options:
Notify on Complete
Enable this in the Options section. When you mark the task as done, the linked email is sent automatically.
Example: You have a task "Send inspection report to seller." Link the email template, enable Notify on Complete, and when you check off the task, the email goes out.
Auto-Send Date
Set a specific date in the Scheduling section. The email sends on that date regardless of task completion.
Example: You need to send a reminder to the buyer 3 days before closing. Set the auto-send date and it fires automatically.
Tips
- Always review your email templates before enabling auto-send — make sure the content and recipients are correct
- Auto-send respects DocJacket's approval-first design — you'll get a notification before emails go out so you can cancel if needed
- Combine email automation with task templates to set up entire email workflows for a transaction type
