Current User - Email

Posted on by 612 Super User 2024 Season 2
Hi,
 
I have used the current email user setup many times within Business Central but recently have encountered an issue where the current user has appeared as blank.
 
An email address has been setup in both the user card and user setup but when you try to email a purchase order (This has been assigned as current user in the email scenarios) then it appears as follows:
 
 
This is an on-premises deployment so can anyone confirm where the current user email address is picked up from in this process as it does not seem to be from any of the two places I mentioned above.
 
Thanks,
Shauna

    Hi
    Sorry, what I wanted to indicate are the later Cumulative Updates, I put the abbreviations and it was confused with Codeunits.
    They probably have patches for something that isn't working properly.

    Since this is an On-Premise deployment, you need to have Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) replication linking the Windows User to their M365 User.  The system then uses the User's M365 email to send the email.  If the User is not licensed with the ability to email, such as a BC Team Member with no M365 license, that User would not be able to send the email.  The system should be using the Current User's M365 email to send the email.
     
    Hope this helps.

    Does the PO have a Purchaser code assigned? Could be the email in this case is being taken from Salesperson/Purchaser card?

    Hi,
     
    Did you mean to include the codeunit id's?

    Hi
    I advise you to review the following CUs that have come out of the version of BC that you have in the on-premise version. It is possible that it is a bug and has been solved.
    Best Regards
