I am trying to format firstly, a check in email, in which I include in the body text, a confirmation of their check in date/time, check out date/time. How would I format this? I am trying to do this in "create booking email template" and
Secondly, how do I create a trigger for this email to go out 5 days prior to check in?
Thirdly, I have two documents that always go with this email, a "check in" email with some fun info about The Cottage and a "check out" email with the check out tasks on it. They are both in PDF format, but I do have them saved in Word. How would these get attached to each check in email? I also like to attach them to the booking email confirmation?
thx
Found where to add the files, duh
I think I DID IT!!! Whew...sorry about so many questions, but it is a slow slog finding where the answers are. I understand that the search engines aren't geared up for this, at least not the one on the "ribbon." Just seems as though I have to search in several places before I find what I need to create my specific tasks. But I'm getting there. Yippee
Awesome!
