Word Processor

Action: WORDPROC

You can create mail merge letters to print or email. Letters are for mailing lists, customers & prospects and can be printed from the prospect form, customer form, pick-up inventory form and Query report writer. Sample documents are included to help you learn it's capabilities. The word processor operates like Word for Windows from Microsoft.

The system has the ability to insert/merge information about the person the letter is being written to. The available merge fields are determined by the SOURCE of the letter/label. The merge is automatically completed by ProfitSystem® when the letter is printed/emailed.
