✨ When You Need This Guide

Use this guide when you want to:

  • Change where appointment notifications are sent

  • Add multiple team members to receive alerts

  • Route SMS notifications into your Conversations tab

  • Create appointment-type-specific alerts

Common questions this answers:

  • “Where do I edit the email that gets notifications?”

  • “Can we get texts when a new appointment is booked?”

  • “How do I send notifications to multiple providers?”

  • “Can I customize alerts for different types of appointments?”


✅ Set Notification Recipients for Online Scheduling

  1. Go to the SCHEDULING tab

  2. Click on SHOW TEMPLATES
    This will open your list of notification templates.

  3. Choose the template you want to update:

    • Some templates are internal, which only notify the office

    • Others are external, sent to patients when they schedule

  4. Add or update the email addresses:


📱 Add SMS Notifications (Optional)

  • If the template allows, you can also add a phone number for text notifications

  • Pro Tip: Use your office number so these messages flow into your CONVERSATIONS tab for easy tracking

  • Don’t forget to click SAVE after entering the number


🛠️ Create Custom Notifications by Appointment Type

Want unique alerts based on the type of appointment booked?
You can customize notifications per appointment type to keep your team informed on exactly what’s coming in.

✨ This is especially helpful if you want different team members alerted for New Patient visits, Consultations, or Adjustments.


🎉 You’ll Know It’s Working When:

  • You receive an email or text immediately after a patient books online

  • The right team members are notified without missing anything

  • Custom notifications align perfectly with appointment types
