This report allows preparation and printing of direct mail letters addressed to customers and/or suppliers, as parameterized by the user.

The creation process is similar to Direct Mail Word for Windows®, where fields for registration are created, the letter is prepared where these fields are inserted in order to be automatically changed, according to configuration.

Procedures

Generating the direct mail/letters report:

1. In Direct Mail/Letters, the Files window is displayed for selection of the file to be used when creating the letters (Customers or Suppliers) or for selecting an existing direct mail file.

2. If there is no direct mail saved, to create a new file, select the file (Customers or Suppliers) to prepare the letter and click OK to continue.

The system displays the window Edit Letters for direct mail displaying the fields File Name and Text.

3. In the field File Name, enter a name to characterize the direct mail for saving a file with the configurations to be entered. Then, the direct mail is ready for use when necessary.

Note that the file's extension will be .MLD.

4. In the field Text, type the letter to be printed.

It can comprise a standard text plus AdvPl expressions, which can be linked to the system fields to be printed in the direct mail, thus, allowing the fields entered to be automatically filled out.
