Merging e-mail content

E-mail templates can be edited in pure HTML allowing full customization options and freedom of design. Content elements are presented on the side of the e-mail template editor. These content elements are referred as tags.

Tags replace content from the various objects in the database and are formatted using handlebars {{somename}}.

<table width="100%" border="1" cellspacing="5" cellpadding="5">
    <tr>
      {{#if_eq customer.CompanyName}}
      <td>{{customer.CompanyName}} let's you show only the customer company name if it exists</td>
      {{/if_eq}}
      
      {{#if_eq customer.CompanyName}}
      <td>{{customer.FullName}} if the customer has no company name, show the full name instead</td>
      {{/if_eq}}
      
      {{#if_eq customer.BillToParent "True"}}
      <td>This is only shown when Bill To Parent is true on customer</td>
      {{/if_eq}}

      {{#switch PaymentMethod.PaymentMethodType}}
              {{#case "Manual"}}
                             <td>This is a manual payment method</td>
              {{/case}}
              {{#case "Token"}}
                             <td>This is a credit card payment method</td>
              {{/case}}
      {{/switch}}
    </tr>
    <tr>
    </tr>
  </table>

An example on how to iterate through various invoice-lines is shown below.

{{#each Invoice.InvoiceLines}}
  <div class="row">
	{{this.LineNumber}}
  </div>
{{/each}}

Root level objects
While you're inside the #each you can go up a level with ../
For example: {{../Customer.CompanyName}}

if-not	Case based if-not statement.	{{#if_not customer.CompanyName}} customer name is not "" or empty. {{/if_not}} ..you can also combine with else {{else}} .. or compare with a value {{#if_not customer.CompanyName "John Doe"}} customer name is not John Doe. {{/if_not}} .. or compare with empty {{#if_not customer.CompanyName ""}} customer name is not empty or null {{/if_not}}
