In editing this template, here are some general things to consider:
- The situation: This template is generated when a new set of repeating appointments are booked for the client. This template does not list the appointments in the repeating appointment series, this template summaries the series by providing when the start and end date, frequency, and start time of the appointments booked. Having the %APPOINTMENT_NOTE% field in there helps in situations in which you may want to enter a note about this specific repeating appointment series. Keep in mind that for each appointment the client was booked for, they will receive an appointment reminder/text message.
- Options for rescheduling: If you would like for your client to be able to manage their repeating appointments you can include the tag %MANAGE_APPT_URL%. This tag allows your clients to cancel or reschedule their appointments, keep in mind that they they will only be able to do so as long as the time follows with the cancellation/rescheduling parameter set in Settings > Scheduler Rules & Logic.
- Template elements: As with all the appointment templates sent from you account, this email will have the email header and the staff signature in the footer. We recommend putting standard contact information in the staff signature section and to customize your header under your messaging settings to be what you'd like for all of your emails (helps to keep them cohesive).
