Overview #
The Email Settings screen is used to configure the outgoing email connection that LogiSense Billing uses to send system-generated emails. These settings support email delivery for scenarios such as password workflows, invoice delivery, dunning communication, and other template-driven messages.
This screen allows administrators to define how email is sent, what sender information appears on outgoing messages, how authentication is handled, and what attachment limits apply.
Prerequisites #
Email settings can be configured immediately. There are no prerequisite configuration steps, although the required connection credentials must be available before the settings can be completed.
Email Settings Panel #
The Email Settings panel on the left lists the configured email settings. Select an email-setting record to view or edit its details in the panel on the right.
Actions #
| Icon | Description |
|---|---|
| Sends a test email to the AdminPortal user’s email address using the email settings selected | |
| Deletes the selected email settings | |
| Adds new email settings |
Edit Email Settings Panel #
The Edit Email Settings panel displays the configuration for the selected email settings.
Core Fields #

SMTP Authentication Settings #
When SMTP Authentication is selected, the screen can display SMTP server settings such as:
- Server Host Name: Defines the outgoing mail server host name.
- Port: Defines the server port used for the connection.
- Use STARTTLS Only: Determines whether STARTTLS is used for the email connection.
Send As #
The Send As section controls the sender information that appears on outgoing messages when it is not overridden elsewhere by a template.

For Google JWT-based settings, this can include:
- Private Key: Uploads the Google service account key JSON file.
- Token URL: Displays the token URL used by the connection.
Email Attachments #
The Email Attachments section controls attachment handling for system-generated emails.
