Subject

This function allows you to define a standard subject for an email which saves you typing it in every time. It can be of any format you like and can contain as much text as you like.

A special format for text messages (for appointment reminders) is explained at the end of this section.

The Header field is the wording that will appear in the drop down box when selecting a subject to use. You may also attach an Email Signature to the subject.

Examples of it's use might be as above, where a payment is overdue and invoice is attached to the email. By selecting this subject (and the optional signature) an email is created instantly with standard text. You may also want to create standard visit subjects or price rise subjects.

If you are sending an email as an appointment reminder, then you will see the following screen.

This is very much the same a Word Mail Merge document. The variables %date%, %time%, %worker% and %animal% will be replaced with the actual data at the time the email is sent. Place these anywhere in your subject text.
