FAQ: Using Include Transaction when Sending Emails via Outlook

ExtendSync Outlook | Learn how to use Include transaction when sending emails

Updated this week

In NetSuite, the "Include Transaction" feature allows users to attach transaction records (such as invoices, sales orders, purchase orders, etc.) when composing an email. This feature provides various options for how the transaction should be included when you send an email.

Transaction can be included in following forms

  • Inline above

  • Inline below

  • PDF

  • HTML

  • Default

When this is checked the transaction will be included along with email and sent via Outlook.

Transaction Formats and Inclusion Options

Here’s a breakdown of the available Transaction Formats and Inclusion Options:

1. Inline - Above

  • The transaction details are inserted at the top of the email body before the user’s email message.

  • Useful when you want the recipient to see the transaction details first before reading any additional information.

2. Inline - Below

  • The transaction details are inserted at the bottom of the email body, after the user’s email message.

  • Best when the main message should be read first and transaction details are secondary.

3. Default

  • NetSuite will use the default email formatting settings configured for the specific transaction type at Home > Set Preferences > Transactions subtab

4. HTML

  • The transaction is attached in HTML format.

  • This ensures proper formatting, making it easier to read and more visually appealing.

5. PDF

  • The transaction is attached as a PDF file rather than being embedded in the email body.

  • Ideal for official documents like invoices, sales orders, or purchase orders that need to be printed or saved.

All of the above formats would be supported when you are sending email via Outlook and transaction would be included inline or as attachment as specified above when composing an email.
