Triggered Participant Emails
Overview
You can create Triggered Emails for Participants. The email is triggered to fire off of their Birthdate or their Participant Created On Date, as a celebration. For example, you can set up an Email Message to be fired on their Birthday. If the Participant doesn't have an email address, it will be sent to the Account holder.
This type of Triggered Email is system wide -- it does not need to be assigned to anything. You can have multiple of this type of Triggered Email in your database.
Creating the Email Message
Login to the Administrative side of your database, and navigate to Settings --> Assignments --> Email Messages. Click to Add New Email. Input a Title, choose the type Triggered Participant , and click the "Save" button.
You can now begin to compose your Email Message. Input a Subject, and add text to the Body. You can use plain text, and you can use Operators. Operators read data from the system that is relevant to the Account, the Participant and the Participant's Orders, and then input that data into the email. After you are finished composing your email message, click the "Save" button.
