Examples:
- Show the direct number if the mobile is empty.
- Allow users the flexibility to create their sign-off without you, as the admin has to create additional templates.
- Allow users to add their own LinkedIn; if they don't, the company LinkedIn profile is used.

Example #1 - How to show the direct number if the mobile is empty

- Standard sign-off = Best regards
- Add a field (in this example, we name it 'SignOff') and make it editable by the employee.
Now users can update their email signature sign-off in the Xink add-in, and if they don't, they will get the company default. When an end-user requests a specific sign-off, you don't have to create a new template to meet that request. And you don't have to streamline everyone to use one specific sign-off.
Example #3 - How to create a dynamic LinkedIn
Here's an easy way to allow end-users to update and maintain their LinkedIn using 'My Contact Details' in the Xink add-in. You can also update Employees if you prefer no user interaction.
In this example, the link is www.linkedin.com/company/xink/ if the ((LinkedIn)) field is empty.
If the user link is updated, then that link is used.
When you make the field editable, then the end-user can update in their Xink add-in by clicking 'My Contact Details':
