easily Send Professional E-Mail from Any UniData / UniVerse Application

Kourier Messenger leverages the power of e-mail transforming your IBM U2 database into a 24/7 event-driven workflow engine. Communication is vital to any successful company and e-mail is becoming the most widely used medium for businesses today. However, people in business get distracted or busy, and the initiation of communication often breaks down. Since the Messenger is always running and is wired into your business system, you can count on the message being delivered. Use Messenger to communicate to your customers, suppliers, partners, and employees.

Here are some examples of the messages you can send:

E-mail messages are defined in re-useable templates controlling the recipients of the message as well as the subject line, message body, and external document attachments. A powerful substitution processor is available within the templates for dynamic data content generation through the use of substitution tags. Using substitution tags allows you to create e-mail messages with content that includes: database dictionaries, constants, system functions, or programmatic variables passed through a simple API (Application Programming Interface). It’s easy to develop and change your messages without tedious programming. 

Messaging is automated through defined services that can be scheduled on a recurring basis. An integrated event log captures informational, warning, and error events during processing of the services with full reporting capabilities. Specific events can be filtered from the log or a notification message can be triggered as a result of the event.
