Adding additional user fields
This feature is available if you have purchased a corresponding licence.
You can add additional fields to the data of your company users. You can then insert these fields as placeholders in your disclaimer templates. When attaching the disclaimer to emails, these placeholders will then be replaced by the inserted values.
- Go to Identities > Additional user fields > Additional user fields.
- Click Add.
- Enter a name for the field.
- (Optional) Enter a default value. This value is used if no value is set on the user itself.
For most applications, it is recommended to select Create default fields. This creates frequently used fields. When the fields are created, the user fields are automatically assigned to Active Directory fields. You can adjust this assignment manually later.
Default values are used if the user is not assigned their own values. In the field for the telephone number, for example, the number of the head office can be entered, in the field for the email address the email address of the head office.
- Placeholders based on custom user fields are represented in the template editor with an asterisk (*), for example [*CustomUserField]. Exceptions are placeholders in templates created with NoSpamProxy version 13.2 or smaller.
- Placeholders based on custom user fields are not localised.
NOTE: For manually created users, you can edit the fields defined here directly on the user object. If you import your users from a remote system, you can use an automatic user import to define how these fields are filled. If required, you can specify a default value. This value is used if no value is set on the user itself. See Automating the user import.
