Messaging - Manage Distribution Lists - Duplicate a Distribution List
- When you duplicate an existing Distribution List, a new Distribution List profile will open, copying some fields from the list you duplicated. You can edit any duplicated fields and will need to add additional data as necessary.
- The Distribution List detail screen consists of a sidebar on the left allowing you to search through existing distribution lists and select one if desired.
- The main body of the screen contains fields that can be populated in the creation of a new distribution list.
- Enter a name for the list and a description in the text boxes at the top.
- The following sections, partitioned by green headers, allow you to manage the members of the distribution list:
- Assigned Groups
- Assigned Operators
- Assigned Vehicles
- Any or all of the above categories can be added to a distribution list as needed.
- For each of the categories, click on the “+Add” link on the right side of the green header bar to add members to the list.
- A window will open in front of the main screen. Use the search bar at the top or scroll through the list on the left side to locate groups, individuals, or vehicles. As a group/individual/vehicle is highlighted, summary information will display to the right. To select an item for addition to the distribution list, click on the “+” symbol on the right side of the highlighted item. It will then be added to the box labeled “To” in the bottom right of the window. You may continue to add as many recipients as necessary. When finished, click on the blue “Done” button and the window will close.
- Members will now be listed, by category, on the main “Add” screen. You may remove members by using either the “- Remove” link at the top right of the category header row or by clicking on the carat icon under the Actions column for a member you wish to Remove, then selecting “Remove.”
- When finished, click on the “Save” button in the bottom right of the screen.
