Email Logged On Users

You can email one or more users who are currently logged into the system.

To use the email feature, there must be an email address associated with the user account(s) shown in the (VA User Profile), and you must have an SMTP server.

If MS Outlook is installed on your workstation, a new email will be created in that program. (Emails sent via this feature will not be recorded in your Outlook 'Sent' box.) If MS Outlook is not installed, a Viewpoint email form will open.
  1. From the main menu or a form menu, select Help > System > Logged On Users. The Logged on Users grid shows the user name, last activity date/time, phone number, and email address.
  2. Email one or all users:
    • To email one user, select that user in the form and click the Email User button. This will create a new email and populate the To field with the selected user.
    • To email all logged in users, click the Email All button. This will create a new email and populate the To field with the selected users.
    • You can also send an immediate message to all logged-in users in a pop-up window instead of in an email using the VA Site Settings form. See Sending an Immediate Message for more information.
