"What's a single use letter, and how do I make one?"
A single use letter is a doc that's got all the formatting of a letter, including the "to" and "from" addresses (at the top), and your org's letterhead on the side. It also has the sender's signature block (at the bottom).
To make a single use letter, and download it as a PDF:
- First, tap: MenuDocs ... allNew doc
- Then set it to: "New letter"
- Once it slides out on the right, look up the address of the person you're sending it to.
- You might also type in the name of the person you're sending it to, above the address.
- Then type in the subject, name, and contents of your letter.
- Next, now that you've got your letter exactly how you'd like it to look, to see what type it's set to, open the bottom menu:
- Then tap: Change letter type
- And you'll see that, by default, all new letters are set to: "Single use (no history, no confirm)"
- In the notes, you can see that the main purpose of a "single use" letter is to download it as a PDF.
- You'll also see that nothing about the "single use" letter is stored on 1st Money's servers once you close it.
- Next, to download the letter as a PDF, tap: Download PDF (at the bottom)
- The download takes a few seconds while it generates a PDF that includes your company's letterhead on the side of the first page.
- Once it's downloaded, tap the downloaded PDF to see it.
- You can now save or print your downloaded PDF.
- And finally, tap Close & discard, and now that it's closed, nothing remains stored on 1st Money's servers.
Keep in mind that:
- Once you close your letter there's no way to restore it back.
- If you want to save your letter for future use, you'll need to change it to a different type.
