Minimal Configuration to send e-mails in a process

Znuny 6.4 introduced several new features to Process Management. One of those is transition action SendArticle. Although documentation that is available on Znuny.org seems to be comprehensive, making it work is still a challenging task. Below you can see a minimal configuration of the SendArticle Transition Action.

Hints

Salutation, Signature and Template are fields expecting name of desired article component. In Body you are then referring to those variables using <OTRS_TA_Salutation>, <OTRS_TA_Signature>, <OTRS_TA_Template>.

You can use <OTRS_*> variables in the text of Body as well.

Debug information is available in error log.
