How Do I Set or Edit My Email Signature?

Adding or updating your email signature in Contractor Foreman ensures that every message sent from the platform—whether from estimates, invoices, change orders, or general correspondence—carries a consistent, professional closing. This signature automatically appends to outbound emails, reinforcing your branding and providing recipients with immediate contact details without requiring manual entry each time.

Access Your Personal Settings

The email signature is managed at the individual user level, giving each team member control over their own professional sign-off while maintaining uniformity across the company when desired.

1. From the main navigation Menu, select Settings. The Settings module serves as the central location for all personal account adjustments, including communication preferences that affect how you interact with clients and team members.

2. Click on My Details in the left sidebar. My Details opens your personal profile page, where user-specific customizations such as contact information and communication settings are consolidated for easy access.

Locate and Edit the Email Signature

Once in My Details, scroll to the dedicated signature field. This placement keeps the feature readily available without cluttering the interface, ensuring quick updates as roles or contact details change.

3. Scroll down to the Email Signature section. The Email Signature area features a rich text editor that supports formatting, links, and basic styling—ideal for creating a polished, multi-line signature that reflects your professional identity.

4. Enter or modify your signature using the built-in editor. You can include your name, title, phone number, website, or even a short tagline. The editor allows bolding, italics, hyperlinks (e.g., to your company site), and line breaks to achieve a clean, organized layout.

5. Click Save at the bottom of the page to apply the changes. Saving instantly activates the updated signature across all future emails sent from within Contractor Foreman, with no delay or additional confirmation required.

This personalized signature will now appear automatically on every email generated by the system under your account, enhancing professionalism and saving time on repetitive formatting.

Supplementary Notes

• The signature applies only to emails sent from within Contractor Foreman and will not affect your personal email client (Outlook, Gmail, etc.).

• For company-wide consistency, administrators can encourage team members to follow a standardized template (e.g., Name | Title | Phone | Company Website).

• If you include images (such as a logo), host them online and insert via URL rather than embedding to prevent delivery issues.

• Test the signature by sending a sample estimate or invoice to yourself to verify appearance across different email clients before using it with clients.
