Great idea David.  Thanks for getting back so quickly.
 
Could you fax your one pager to 440-944-3154.

Hi Mark
 
Try using message control when a sales order is created. This can trigger a
workflow.
You will need to configure an output type, condition records to do this.
Think the business workflow
event type is 9
 
Check out message control in the online help for more info.
 
If you need a one pager I can fax you on how to configure this.....its
taken
from the BC601
course. Just let me know your fax number.
 
I would create a brand new template if I were you
 
Cheers
Dave
