Additional information

The following is additional information related with the organisation record settings

 

Whitelisting

  • IP whitelisting is a security feature often used for limiting and controlling access only to trusted users. IP whitelisting allows you to create lists of trusted IP addresses or IP ranges from which your users can access your domains.

  • If your computer devices use a dynamic IP address , which is one that can change between connections or over time the Whitelist IP Addresses data grid should remain ‘empty’. Only update the Whitelist IP Addresses data grid with static IP addresses.

  • Selecting the delete record icon will remove the Branch record from the database.

As of November 2019, Microsoft has implemented restrictions for relaying emails via Office 365, allowing only the configured account within Brevity to send emails. For this reason you need to select the employee that has the same email address that you configured on the organisation page in the From field on the Bulk Email Notification screen. If you select a user with a different email address, it will not send the email. Alternatively you can ask your IT provider to configure relaying by following this guide:  Configuring Office 365 Mail Server in Brevity
