BDP has a powerful Rules Engine which allows you to automate documents and emails. You can select any system event and tell BDP to:
- Create a Word document or PDF based on a template of your making
- Send an email based on any template you add to your account. We have a large selection of example templates.
- Send an email as above but delayed until any number of minutes, hours or days after the event, or in advance of the event
- Send a calendar appointment in standard .ics format which will be automatically added as a diary entry to Outlook and every other diary system available, including smart phones.
- Perform any custom logic that you may ask us to develop for your organisation.
