In editing this template, here are some general things to consider:

  • The situation: This template is generated when the staff (only if the option "Send Staff an email about the cancelled appointment" is selected) or a client is cancelling the appointment. If you are cancelling appointments in bulk through the appointment list views, then you won't be able to individually edit each of the emails before they are sent to the staff whose appointment is getting cancelled. Having the %CANCEL_NOTE% field in there helps in these situations if you want to enter a note to apply for bulk cancellations.
