2) Choose “MS Dynamics” from the dropdown at the top.

3) Fill in all the fields and click to generate the HTML code you will need to enter into your MS Dynamics.

5) Copy the HTML generated in the box on the right hand side.

6) In MS Dynamics, go to “Settings” >>”Options” >>  “Email Templates”.

7) Click “New” to create a new email template (or edit an existing one), it doesn’t matter which type you use.

8) Then paste in the HTML that’s been generated by Customer Thermometer.

9) Once that’s been pasted in, save it. If you then go back in to edit it, you can see that the fields have gone yellow. This shows that they are correct and correspond to Microsoft field codes.
