Set up Outlook email options
If you have administrative rights, you can follow these steps to manage index field mapping, attachment file names, and email cross-referencing capabilities for Outlook email messages that are stored in GoFileRoom.
- Index field mapping:GoFileRoom automatically populates index values for an email message and its attachments based on the current index field-mapping configuration.
- Attachment filenames:You can specify the index value that GoFileRoom will use as the file name for attachments when email messages are sent to GoFileRoom.
- Cross-reference file:This feature enables your firm to cross-reference a value that is mapped from an email message to another pre-configured value.The use of a cross-reference file gives your firm control over how values for email messages are mapped in GoFileRoom. Your firm must decide which mapped fields require cross-referencing. For example, if the Client Name index is mapped to the From field from the email message, you may want to specify a different value as the Client Name.

- TheCross Ref. Filecolumn may be used only if index field mapping is used on a field.
- The cross-reference file must be a text file and its contents should contain the value that is expected from the email, a delimiter, and the associated cross-reference value. Each row represents a new value.
- If the mapped value is an email address found in the cross-reference file, GoFileRoom will populate the associated value when the email message or attachment is indexed.
- Go to your cross-reference text file, select the delimiter that is used, and selectSave.
