Setting up merge fields and display

We receive from your DMS and other sources certain fields that you can include in your communications to personalise messages. These include:

  • customer name
  • car registration number
  • date of appointment
  • time of the appointment
  • VIN of the car
  • model name of the car

You can set these so-called 'merge fields' to display, depending on type.

Take an appointment date field as an example.

  • Open een mailtemplate: selecteer ‘templates‘ in de ‘marketing‘ sectie
  • Maak een mergeveld in de tekst aan door *| te plaatsen in de tekstconfigurator
  • Select the mark field
  • The moment you place your cursor outside the text box, the merge fields light up
  • By clicking on the mark field, you can define a setting on the right-hand side. In the case of this date field, the date can be displayed briefly or written out in full.
