How do I email from Cashflow Manager?
Cashflow Manager offers two main ways to send emails via the program:
- Sending through your desktop email program (e.g. Outlook)
- Sending through your web email client
To get started, open up your business in Cashflow Manager, select the [File] menu, and select [Email Settings].
1. How do I connect my desktop email program?
If you have a desktop email program (e.g. Outlook) installed on your computer and would like to use it, keep the [
Use Installed Email Client] selected and just click [
Save].

To ensure this is fully set up:
- Click on the [Windows Start] button in the bottom left corner of your screen.
- Select [Settings].
- Select [Default Apps] on the left-hand side.
- Ensure that Outlook is selected under the Email option - For v14 both Classic & New Outlook can be used. Only New Outlook can be used in v12.
- Restart the Computer.
Please Note: Cashflow Manager applications cannot connect with the Windows Mail App
2. How do I connect my web client email account?
