Engage → Partners → Workflows.
Select Create Workflow in the upper-right.
Alternatively, find an existing workflow you want to update, hover your cursor over it, and select
[More] → Edit.Fill out the required information such as name, description, trigger, etc. See the workflow form reference for guidance.
In the Action Type section, use the
[Drop-down menus] to select Process Application and Reject.A message box will appear where you can type a custom reject message that will be sent to the partner.
Note the character limit of 255.
Once done building out your workflow, select Create or Save.

[Menu] → Settings.On the right-hand side under Program, navigate to the Branding section and select System Emails and UI Messages.
Navigate to the Rejection Email field and select
[Edit].Select

You can add special tags in the text that get dynamically replaced when the email is generated.
