Which Contacts Receive Emails

Account Contacts will receive emails from your store throughout the order process. In particular, a Contact will receive emails based on their Role. That means the emails they receive can be configured by managing their roles. Go to Customers > Roles & Permissions to view your Roles and update what emails they are sent.

  • A Manager will receive emails for all orders, invoices, shipments, credit memos, and quotes.
  • The Billing contact will receive emails about invoices only.
  • The Shipping contact will receive emails about shipments only.
  • Additional Accounts such as Buyer will receive emails for only their own orders, invoices, or quotes.

Configuring which Emails a Contact is Sent
