Appointment Reminders

Top  Previous  Next

If your center administrator chooses to use this feature, they will assign some users rights to use the appointment reminder function.  Only the center administrator can edit email/text messages. This feature is set up by your center administrator.

 

Appointment reminders are automated, but cannot be set to be sent automatically.  They must be sent by a Titanium user.

 

Your center may have purchased the ability to send reminders via SMS text message.  Each reminder sent via text will incur a charge.  To view your credit balance, from the calendar screen, click Open > Client Appointment Reminders.  The remaining balance is in the lower left corner.  Your center administrator should visit our website to add credit to the SMS text account.  If a center exceeds their credit, they will not be allowed to send SMS text messages.

 

Clients can stop receiving text messages by replying STOP, UNSUBSCRIBE, CANCEL OR QUIT.  Clients can resume receiving text messages by replying START or YES.  Other responses will not be received or processed.  Client responses do not affect any "ok to contact" settings on the client contact tab of the client screen.
