• Identify old email addresses that need to be deactivated. If you are unsure which emails are used for emailing, ask Projector support to help you.
• Identify the new email addresses that are needed.
• Send Projector a list of the email addresses and ask that they be activated. There may be charges for authorizing these email addresses.
• Once the new emails are authorized, do one of two things
  
  • Find any existing users that have the old email address and change it to the new one
  • Add new users that use the new email address
• Send Projector a list of your old email addresses so that they can be deactivated for sending invoices

Invoice Templates

If you have customized your invoice templates, then they may not be using your installation logo any more. You'll need to edit each template and manually upload a new logo.
