O.C.M. revised


Winter is approaching in this part of world, so is my hibernation mode. For a while Email templates are keeping me busy and some usage of "CreateRequest" and "SendMessage" methods of Outbound Communications Manager business service has forced me to draw a comparison between the two. It may help you to identify which one to go for sending outbound emails.

Below diagram lists out the advantages of both worlds.



There were situations where i felt need of passing parameters to email templates just as we pass parameters to DataMaps, DVM's at runtime. I searched for it without any success. Please feel free to comment if you have any clue about passing parameters to email templates apart from field substitutions or more points to add on above comparison list.


Happy E-mailing!!
