Email Integration allows you to connect your email account to Buildxact. This means that we can automatically display emails you receive from customers and suppliers right within Buildxact, as well as allowing you to send emails from within Buildxact using your own email account.
For example, once you connect your email account, you could send a purchase order within Buildxact and it would be sent from your email account, even appearing in your 'sent folder'. Then when the supplier replies to that email the reply will come back to your email account as normal, but also automatically show in Buildxact against the Supplier's record.
