* <b>Confirmation Emails</b> are sent to students and consultants when an appointment is booked. Consultants and students can receive unique versions of this email, depending on the information required on either side. You can also decide whether the email is sent the moment the appointment is booked, later in the night, or at a specific time in the morning. And of course, confirmation emails, and everything else in this article, can be disabled individually by user-type or disabled entirely if it’s not needed.


* <b>Reminder Emails</b> are sent to students and consultants to remind them of upcoming appointments. Just like confirmations, this can be configured separately for students and consultants. You can set the exact time reminder emails are sent each day, either the night before or a custom time in the morning. Reminders can also be disabled for students, consultants, or both.

This menu also allows you to configure an email that will be sent out after students conclude their visit.


* <b>Send Visit Notes to Coach, Advisor, or Student</b> can be manually sent to faculty, coaches, or students after a visit takes place, containing visit notes and other information about their visit.

==Customizing Emails==
* <b>Send Reminder to Consultant Also</b>
Let’s start by customizing our confirmation email as an example. Once you understand how this email works, most of the others will immediately make sense in comparison.
::Allows you to independently disable this email for Consultants. This is typically disabled if you plan to use Consultant Schedule Summary Emails instead.

* <b>Send Confirmation Emails:</b>
<b>Cancellation Emails</b> will be sent to Students and Consultants immediately upon appointment cancellation. Each user-type will receive a unique email with information about the cancelled appointment.
This determines when or if this email gets sent out. Typically, this will be set to "Immediate," so once the appointment is booked, the confirmation emails are already being sent out. However, you may prefer to send them all at once later at night or a custom time the next morning.

* <b>Email Subject and Email Contents</b>
This email can be written out to include anything you can think of, from basic information about the appointment to more in-depth instructions on joining online sessions. This is completely up to you.


In the email contents, we can include <b>email tags</b> to dynamically pull the data we want to include. For example, if we want to include the student's name in the introduction, we can simply type "Hello, <nowiki>{{Student.First_Name}}</nowiki>," which will automatically pull the student's first name when sent.
* <b>CC the Center on Student/Consultant cancellation emails</b>
::This option will send a copy of this email to your Profile email address if available.


To view a list of available tags and easily add them to your email, there's a button above the email settings. When selected, you will be provided a list of tags that can be used. You can even click and drag these tags into the email box to add them to your message. You can hover your mouse over custom field tags to see the corresponding field name, as seen in the screenshot below.

For more specific Twig instructions and a list of email tags, take a look at our Twig article.
<b>Missed Appointment Emails</b> are sent to the Student when an Appointment is missed. This email can be sent the evening of, or the day after the appointment should've taken place.
 
[[File:1187829.png|900px]]<br><br>
 
* <b>Send Missed Appointment Emails</b>
::Disable, or choose when this email is sent.
 
 
* <b>Change missed appointment to Status</b>
::When this process runs, it will automatically change the appointment status if there's no corresponding visit record. This setting determines what status the appointment is set to, which will typically be the same as your Profile 'Status for missed' definition.
 
 
* <b>within x Minutes before/after appointment time</b>
::A time buffer can be assigned here to determine when an appointment should be counted as 'Missed' if there's a Visit record in close proximity. For example, if a student has a 9:00am Appointment, but they started their Visit at 9:05am, we probably shouldn't mark this Appointment as missed, but if the Student is 25-minutes late, maybe that does qualify as a 'Miss' for your campus. 30-minutes in both fields is what most campuses tend to start with.

==Consultant Schedule Summary==
</div>
The Schedule Summary will include information about each of the consultant's upcoming appointments. What differentiates this email template from others is that the Schedule Summary is written in three different sections. You can write the opening/top of the email, the repeating text box for appointment information, and the final/closing text.

Emails
There are various Profile-specific emails that can be configured in TracCloud. Most are sent automatically, such as Confirmations and Reminders, while some are sent manually, like Visit Notes. This article will provide an overview of these email types, what they do, and how they can be customized for your use-case.

References:
  • Twig
Twig and Twig Tags are used extensively throughout emails. This includes simple elements, like using {{Student.First_Name}} to display a student's first name dynamically, to more advanced logic determine exactly what text is included in each email. This article will be referencing Twig, but will not being going into detail. For more information on this topic, take a look at our dedicated Twig Guide.
In the top right corner of your 'Emails' menu is an 'Email Tags' list. This provides quick access to all of your available tags for these emails, which can also be clicked and dragged into text fields to populate them automatically.

  • Previewing Emails
Every email in this menu has a Preview button to see how your email will display when it's sent. It is required to preview emails before saving any changes.

Select an email type below to learn more.
Confirmation Emails



Confirmation Emails are sent to Students, Consultants, and an optional third address when an appointment is booked. Consultants and Students can receive unique versions of this email, depending on the information required for either party. You can also decide whether the email is sent the moment the appointment is booked, later in the night, or at a specific time in the morning.

  • Send Confirmation Emails
Disable this email, send immediately upon Appointment being booked, or send in a batch that night or the next morning at a time of your choice.

  • Send Additional Email on New Appointment
This allows you to enable one more Confirmation email to be sent to the email address defined below.


  • Additional confirmation email address
In the example above, we're using a Custom Field in the student's profile that contains their Assigned Advisor's email address. We can also choose to have a static email address in this field instead.


  • Additional confirmation email subject
Just like the standard Confirmation emails, we can write out our custom subject line...


  • Additional confirmation email
...and the email body itself.

Reminder Emails



Reminder Emails are sent to Students and Consultants to remind them of upcoming appointments. Just like confirmations, this can be configured separately for students and consultants. You can set the exact time reminder emails are sent each day, either the night before or a custom time in the morning. Reminders can also be disabled for students, consultants, or both.

Cancellation Emails



Cancellation Emails will be sent to Students and Consultants immediately upon appointment cancellation. Each user-type will receive a unique email with information about the cancelled appointment.

Consultant Schedule Summary Emails



Consultant Schedule Summary Emails will be sent to consultants the evening before or the morning of their schedule appointments. This single email can contain information about multiple upcoming appointments, rather than receiving individual emails for each appointment. You can write the opening/top of the email, the repeating text box for appointment information, and the final/closing text.
