Generating account details notices
Generating account details notices
To enable this feature go to System Administration and set the system preference : AutoEmailOpacUser : to “send” an email to newly created patrons with their account details.
The template for this email is in the Tools Module – under the Notices and Slips, called ACCTDETAILS. The default email will send the newly registered borrower their User Name and Password for their account. This notice can be customized for your library to add more information if desired.
Notes:
The system will only send an email to a newly registered patron if the patron has an email address included.
You won't be able to view these notices on the patron record in the usual way, they are deliberately not recorded because they would normally contain login details for the user.
