Using Dynamic Fields in Your Reminders
Add Custom Information On-The-Fly to Your Appointment Reminders
Dynamic fields are powerful tools that can make your reminders much more efficient and personalized. But what exactly are they, and how do they work? Essentially, dynamic fields are placeholders that automatically fill in relevant information, like appointment date & time, company name, customer details, and even custom text. Imagine setting up a reminder that includes specifics like a doctor’s name, room number, or an amount due—all without having to manually enter the details every time.
