		+	*Module
		+	*Template Name
		+	*Description
		+	*Default Subject
		+	*Default Email Template
		+
		+	However, the fields '''Union Subject''' and '''Union Email Template''' allow you to fully customise the content of the emails. Simply enter your text and content into the relevant sections and click '''Update Message''' at the top of the page to save your edits. You can also Preview your newly created email, to see how it will appear to receivers, by clicking the '''Preview Email Template''' at the top of the page.
		+
		+	You can also make your emails personalised by adding in system field tags, which will automatically grab info from your system to populate text in the email, for example you can pull across a users name into your email. These system field tags can be found at the bottom of the Edit Email Template pages, simply click on the + sign on the orange bar to dropdown relevant system field tags which you can then copy and paste into your email content.
