Sending Email Notifications, Reminders, and Accept or Decline Invitations
Emails are automatically sent to tagged resource but you can also manual type an email address for non tagged resources.
Emails can be sent in a few ways:
1, Automatically to the people and customers you tag in your event.
2, Manually to the people and customers you tag in your event using Share.
3, Manually to an address by typing it into the email address field of the event.
4, Reminders to the people and customers you tag in your event just before the event is due to start.
5, Invitations to the people and customers you tag in your event, so they can Accept or Decline.
When an event is added, updated or deleted an email can be automatically sent to the email address of any/all tagged resources.
In the full online version (login from our home page, or press 'Full Online Version' from the app)...
1, Add a valid email address to each of the Resources that you want to send an email to. Access your resources from your Account Settings > Resources page, and click a resources name to edit it.
2, Choose the type of activity that would cause emails to be automatically sent to the resource. Email Alerts are just information telling a person what has been planned. Email Invitations tell a person what you have planned but adds an Accept and Decline button so they can respond.
3, You can use Exceptions to block emails from being sent until a specific resource is tagged in the event. For example you can enable automatic email alerts, but until events are tagged with a resource called Confirmed or Published, nothing is sent. As soon as Confirmed or Published is tagged in the event then emails will be sent.
From within an event you can press the More Actions button to see a sub menu where you can select Email. This will send email alerts, or invitations, to the selected tagged resources with an email address.
