Email Notice to New Matter Participants

When you add a new participant to a matter, an email invitation is automatically and immediately sent to the user. The new user message varies slightly depending on the matter role assigned to the user.
The following two sections include samples of the email notice that is sent when a participant is added to a matter. The first shows a sample email for a matter participant with a matter role of Matter Administrator, Matter Editor or Matter Reader. The second shows a sample email for a user who was granted Billing Only access to a matter. The difference between the two emails is that the email sent to the user with a matter role of Matter Administrator, Matter Editor or Matter Reader has a clickable link for accessing the matter. The email sent to the user with Billing Only access to the matter does not have a clickable link. This is because the user does not actually have access to the matter details. The user, however, can post invoices to the matter by clicking Billing in the left navigation.
