Microsoft 365: Outlook Online Add-in Setup

The Microsoft 365 Outlook Online Add-in links the AdvisorEngine CRM email correspondence features to Outlook Online. With this feature enabled, all emails initiated from within AE CRM will open Outlook Online to create and send messages to your clients. This combines the power of the Outlook email editor with the mail merge and template features of AE CRM for a robust email experience.

Prerequisites

Warning: If you intend to use the locally-installed version of Outlook after enabling this add-in, you will need to apply a compatibility fix.
