Purpose
This article highlights all of the Allbound default email notifications that are sent via the portal's back-end settings.
Introduction
*Note: within this article, any mention of an "Allbound Administrator user" is one who has the System Settings permission toggled on
When any active Allbound portal users complete specific actions within the platform, they will receive an email notification to their email address that they used to register for an Allbound account.
By default, these emails' Subject Line and Message Body Text are not customizable. However, as an Allbound Administrator, you may customize these emails only with your company logo, an email header image, and/or email footer.
Furthermore, these default email notifications cannot be disabled. The only default email notifications that can be disabled are the ones related to Deal Registration (whether users have registered or updated a deal,) and Marketing Development Funds (whether users have requested or updated an MDF request.)
By default, these emails will be sent from (no-reply@allbound.com). Depending on your purchased Allbound package, you may customize this email sender signature to something more fitting to your company's branding; please speak to your Allbound Implementation Specialist, Customer Success Manager, or submit a ticket to our Support team for this project.

System Default Deal Email Notifications
These system default deal email notifications can be disabled within your portal's Revenue Settings:
When these settings are enabled, the portal will send emails to users based on the Allbound partner user roles. It is important to note that by design, when an Allbound user registers a deal themselves, they do not receive a system default deal registration email notification since they are aware that they registered the deal and thus, do not need to be notified. However, since a user with a role of Executive or Manager can register and assign the Deal Owner for their colleagues, then those Deal Owners will receive a system default deal registration notification.
The below image is an example of what the email notification will look like when a user with a Manager partner user role registers a deal on behalf of a Sales partner user role from the same primary company within your portal:
Purpose |
When an Allbound user with an Executive and/or Manager partner user role registers and assigns the Deal Owner, the Deal Owner will receive this email notifying them about this deal |
Subject | Deal Created at <Company Name> |
To | The <deal owner> |
Body |
