If you installed
Deltek Resource Planning on your own server, use the Communications tab in the Integrations & Imports area of Configuration to set up email service so that
Deltek Resource Planning can generate and send email such as processing error alerts and log-in assistance messages.
If you are accessing the hosted version of
Deltek Resource Planning on Deltek Cloud servers, setting up email service is not necessary, and this tab does not display.

| Field | Description |
|---|
| EMAIL SERVER
|
Enter the host name or IP address of an SMTP-compliant email server.
|
| PORT
|
Enter the SMTP port that the SMTP email server uses.
|
| Use TLS
|
If you use an email provider, such as Microsoft Office 365, that uses Transport Layer Security (TLS) encryption, select this check box.
When you select this check box, also enter the following on this tab:
- In the
EMAIL SERVER field, enter the address of the SMTP server, such as
smtp-mail.outlook.com if you use Office 365.
- In the
PORT field, enter
25. In some cases, port 25 or 587 may be required.
- In the
USERNAME and
PASSWORD fields, enter a username and password if they are required by your email provider for sending emails via SMTP. For example, enter your Office 365 username and password if you use Office 365.
If you use smtp.office365 or other SMTP vendors who require that an existing account must match the email address in the
From field of emails from
Deltek Resource Planning, then you may need to create or rename an account/mailbox to match the default sender email address used in
Deltek Resource Planning.
|
| USERNAME
|
If your SMTP server requires domain authentication, enter the username in this field. This is a domain username, not a
Deltek Resource Planning username.
|
| PASSWORD
|
If your SMTP server requires domain authentication, enter the password associated with the domain username above. This is a domain password, not a
Deltek Resource Planning password.
|
| DEFAULT SENDER EMAIL
|
Enter the default email address that you want to use when
Deltek Resource Planning sends email.
Deltek Resource Planning also uses this address if an employee sends an email message from within
Deltek Resource Planning and that employee does not have an associated email address.
|
| Add DeltekAdmin_ prefix to the Default Sender Email Address
|
This option is selected by default. For email authentication,
Deltek Resource Planning automatically adds the prefix
DeltekAdmin_ to the sender's email address. This allows the recipient to validate the authenticity of the sender.
For example, if you enter IT@webb.com in the
DEFAULT SENDER EMAIL field, the
Deltek Resource Planning default sender email address is
DeltekAdmin_IT@webb.com.
Clear this option if you do not want to add the prefix to the default sender email address.
|
| Use Default Sender Email for Reply To
|
Select this option if you want the default email address for replies to
Deltek Resource Planning email messages to be the same as the email address you entered in the
DEFAULT SENDER EMAIL field.
If you want the reply address to be different from the address you entered in the
DEFAULT SENDER EMAIL field, do not select this check box. Instead, enter a different address in the
DEFAULT REPLY TO EMAIL field.
|
| DEFAULT REPLY TO EMAIL
|
If you do not select
Use Default Sender Email for Reply To, enter the default email address for replies to
Deltek Resource Planning email messages.
|
| Send Test Email
|
Click this link to send a test email message. In the Test Email dialog box, enter the address to which you want to send the message.
