Add an Inbox

The Accounts Payable Admin in Trimble Construction One can add an inbox to be used as a forwarding email address for the Inbox in Automatic Invoicing.

  1. From any tab in Automatic Invoicing, select the gear icon in the upper right-hand corner.
    Note: If you do not see the gear icon, you have not been set up as an Accounts Payable Admin. Contact your System Administrator for assistance.
  2. From the Inbox Settings tab, select Add Inbox.
  3. In the Inbox Name field, enter a name for the inbox. This is the name for the account that will appear in the Inbox.
  4. In the Forward To Email Address field, enter a unique address name. This name will be used in the email address for the inbox. Note that this name cannot include spaces.
  5. If the Enable Company-Specific Access setting is toggled 'on' on the Company Settings page, a Companies field is visible. From the drop-down, select the companies that you want to assign to the inbox. To select all companies, select the Select All checkbox at the top of the list. To filter the list, start typing in the Search Companies field at the top of the list.
  6. If you want the inbox to display messages that do not include attachments, select Show messages without PDF attachments.
    Note: You may want to select this option if you need to receive a verification email in order to set up email forwarding, or if you want to view any invoices, which arrive as email messages rather than attachments. Note that, without an attachment, you cannot add the invoice to the batch using Automatic Invoicing.
  7. Select Save.
The inbox is created, and will appear as a tab at the top of the Inbox. Note that the Forward To Email Address now includes the word, "invoices" at the beginning and is appended with your Enterprise ID.
Use the email address displayed under Forward To Email Address to set up a forwarding email address in your email application.

For example, in the following inbox, you would enter the following as the forwarding email address: acme.7285.QA@autoinvoices.trimble.com

If you need to change the forwarding email address at any time, you can select the Edit option to do so.
