Displays "Password not available" if Include Generated Password In Welcome Email is deselected in Step 3, or if you have selected Use The Same Password For All Users. %CRMLink% - The URL to access Sage CRM. The template can be modified in <My Profile> | Administration | Email And Documents| Email Templates. Please see Setting up email templates for more information. |
