Dynamic content in your reservation confirmation emails
Introduction
The idea is that you can display a certain text based on the booked activity/product, in a reservation email, invoice, etc. For example: a venue has 5 different activities and they want to give specific instructions/rules to their customers that are different per activity. Instead of making 5 different reservation emails, it is possible to setup only one and include a dynamic parameter that is able to show the content based on the activity. This special parameter needs to be added in the html template of the reservation/offer/invoice template with the name 'ProjectInfoText'.
Configuration
1 – Open the configuration menu in the software (top right button), go to Projects -> Infos.
2 – Click on the ‘+’ to add a new text/link.
3 – Under ‘ProjectKinds’ in the middle, select where you want to use this parameter (reservation email, invoice,…).
4 – Now you need to select the product or activity where the text has to be applied to. Let’s say you want to add bowling rules to your reservation email. You can click on the magnifier glass under ‘ResourceGroup’ and select Bowling.
5 – Under ‘Name’ and ‘Value’ you can add the text that will be displayed. Both the Name and Value will be shown.
6 – Finally, go to the template and add the ProjectInfoText parameter, it is under ‘Special parameter’.
