Contacts and Consent - Creating Collection Correspondence Templates

Collections letters must be created prior to setup and use of the Collections module. Letters can be set up as a global template, applicable to all associations, or as an association-specific template.

Note: All association governing documents should be consulted for clear definition of the community’s collection policies when creating collection letters.

Follow these steps to create collection correspondence templates:

  1. In CINC Core, go to Tools > Correspondence Templates.

  1. The Correspondence Templates page displays. Search for and select the desired association for association-specific templates or select All for global templates.

  1. In the Template section, compose the letter in the HTML editor.
