Accord sends emails — approval requests, approval results, escalations and password-reset codes — through your organisation's mail server. Open eHR Portal Management → Configure General Settings → Configure Email Settings.

Notification SMTP Settings
  1. Server information

    Enter the Outgoing mail server (SMTP) and its Port, and tick Enable SSL if your server requires it.

  2. Logon information

    Enter the sending E-mail Address, and the User name and Password for that mailbox.

  3. Save

    Select Save SMTP Settings.

Your IT team can give you these values. Use a dedicated mailbox such as [email protected] rather than a person's account.

If these settings are wrong, employees won't receive approval emails or password reset codes. After changing them, ask a colleague to try Forgot password to confirm emails arrive.
