Setting Up Email Sharing Permissions

Setting Up Email Sharing Permissions

Introduction

There are multiple instances when a customer's email needs to be accessible to more than one person within the organization. To facilitate easy access of emails, 1Stop Install provides email sharing options/permissions. Administrators can set email sharing options/permissions for individual users or by specific roles within the organization. There are four types of sharing options:
  1. User's Choice - The user can configure their own sharing permissions (private, public, or custom). This option is used by those who work independently and may be required to share emails with a few of their colleagues or other team members as needed.
  2. Private - Emails will not be accessible to anyone in the organization except the user to whom it is sent. Even if the record is shared with other users, they will not be able to view the associated emails.  This option is used by CEOs and other Top Management who want to keep their communications confidential.
  3. Public - Every email sent or received will be accessible to all users across the organization. This option is used by Sales Reps and Managers directly responsible for day-to-day customer interaction that want to share their emails with all users in the organization. 
  4. Custom - The user can share the emails only by using the record sharing option. They can choose individual records and select the Share Email checkbox under the Email Related List.  While setting this sharing permission, the administrator can specify the users or roles with whom the emails can be shared.  This option is used for Sales Reps and Managers directly responsible for day-to-day customer interaction who want to share emails with relevant team members only.
