6. How Do I email sales from my DataLog?

Emailing sales from your datalog is a very simple process using the drag/drop or copy/paste method. Make sure that your datalog is open and then open a new message from your email account – we will be using Microsoft Outlook for this process.

We will start with the drag and drop method. Make sure that you can see both the blank email message and the datalog. Enter in the recipient of the email and the subject. Then in the datalog, select the sales that you want to email – we will select four sales. Left click and hold on the dark blue highlighted sales and drag them to the body of the email message. The mouse should change to a white arrow with a dotted box below it. If the mouse does not change form, you need to try the drag/drop again. The four sales should attach to the email message as shown below.

The other way to pull sales into an email message is to use the copy/paste method. Make sure that you can see both the blank email message and the datalog. Enter in the recipient of the email and the subject. Then in the datalog, select the sales that you want to email – we will select four sales. Then click on the “Transfer Sales” button and select “Copy Sales to Clipboard”. Now go to your email message and right click in the body of the message and select “Paste”. The four sales we copied in the datalog should now be pasted into the email message and look like the figure above.

Now click Send!

Use the same methods outlined above to transfer the sales from an email message to your DataLog.
