Send mail to Organisation email

It doesn't look like it's possible to edit the email that is sent to the organisation.  In the templates there are the following....

  • Application Follow Up Message Template
  • Application Send Info Message Template

But no templates for the corresponding messages to the Organisation.

Am I missing something please?

Also, is it possible to edit the email subject.  The one that arrives at the organisation is "Volunteer details" which is not really ideal.

Hi Richard,

Send info & Follow up emails have the inline editing feature. Email content and subject can be edited on 'Send volunteer details to Organisation' screen itself.

Thanks

Yes please, I'd like to amend it to say 

 

Hello,

Please see below details of a volunteer who has expressed an interest via the Do-It website* to volunteer for <Opp Name>. Please could you contact them to discuss this opportunity?

Please do let us know how the volunteer gets on, and also if your volunteering requirements change.

Kind regards,

<Your name>

*To find out more about Do-It online applications please read this statement on our website.

Thanks Heather - that's exactly what I was expecting to have.  I don't quite understand why we have templates to tailor the email to the volunteer but not for the Organisation.

I don't think it's acceptable to add the text in each time.  the whole point of the system was that it is configurable (as far as the text is concerned) and pretty well automatic.

Would it be possible to change it so that all mail sent out had a template that could be modified please?

Hi VEDA

Any response on this please?  There are one or two things that are holding us up starting to use VBC fully and this is one of them.

What we would ideally like is to be able to define the subject and the text for the emails going to both the Volunteer and the Organisation and in addition to be able to define exactly which fields of the opportunity and volunteer records are included in the email.  There is currently too much information - particularly with the opp details sent to the volunteer.

Could really do with a response on this please if possible.

I appreciate this is basically an enhancement request, but would welcome an estimate if you are able.
