Like the Users module, the Trading Partners module also has a way of sending broadcast emails to Trading Partners. This can be useful in cases where you might want to notify trading partners about an impending server maintenance, a new feature, or anything of that nature.

Before you can send out any broadcast email message, make sure you’ve already enabled your email service in Settings > Email > Email tab > Enable email service, and that all necessary settings have been configured.
Also, you need to remember that the broadcast will only be sent to Trading Partners who have valid email addresses registered with their account. If you wish to check if a particular Trading Partner has an email address associated with it, just go to Trading Partners, select the trading partner name, and click Edit.
That trading partner must have a valid email address in the Email field.
Once all those requirements have been met, you can then proceed to send an email broadcast by clicking on the Email Partners button in the Trading Partners module.
You’ll then be asked to enter the subject and the message body for that email. Once you’re done, click the OK button.
If the email broadcast is successful, you should see a notification at the top of the screen indicating how many email messages were sent out successfully.
That’s it. Now you know how to send a broadcast email to all users on JSCAPE MFT Server.
