Customizing the Evaluation Pass Email & SMS Templates (How-To)

Article Details

When a pet passes an evaluation, Gingr can automatically notify the pet parent through an email or SMS message. These templates are fully customizable so your business can control the message text, add merge fields, and reflect your branding.

Both templates are triggered by the Send Pass Communication modal, which appears after staff save evaluation results regardless of whether results are saved for one location or system-wide, based on your organization’s Evaluation Results Records setting in the Pet Profile or Shopping Cart.

Before You Begin

  • Ensure your user group has permission to edit System Email Templates and Canned SMS Templates.

  • SMS requires that your business has Gingr’s SMS functionality enabled.

Customizing the Evaluation Pass Email Template

 1) Navigate to the Template

  1. Go to Admin » System Email
