Programmed Messages

With programmed messages, you can set up automatic emails and texts or reminders for calls and follow-ups

Programmed messages are automatic, and manual client follow-ups are triggered when certain conditions are met.

Programmed messages can be automatic (used when you want to send email or SMS messages) or manual (when you want to be reminded about phone calls or emails).

  • To access this submodule, navigate to Clients → Programmed Messages.

Create a Programmed Message

1. Start: Click the + icon in the top right corner and choose the necessary information in the pop-up window.


2. Configure Details: After clicking the + icon, the Add modal appears where you can make necessary adjustments:


Module: Choose the related module (Leads, Estimates, Workorders, Invoices, etc.). The options you see depend on the selected module:

  • Leads: Specify lead status and services;
  • Estimates, Workorders, Invoices: Define statuses, services, and service statuses;
  • Schedule Event: Select the Workorder status;
  • Client Task: Choose the task category.

Type: Select how the message will function:

  • Manual (Call, Mail or Estimate Follow-Up): This option is used for follow-ups that require manual communication with the client. These appear later in the Follow-Up submodule.
  • Auto (Email or SMS): Automatically sends messages based on preset parameters.


Repeat: Enable this option to send messages repeatedly based on the schedule you define:

  • Send after/Call after: Set the interval (e.g., 1 day, 1 week). Example: if Send/Call After is set to 1 day and Repeat is checked, the system will send the message daily.
Repeat is only available for Leads, Estimates, Workorders, and Invoices modules.

Allowed For: Select client types (Residential, Commercial, or Municipal). By default, all types are included. Clicking a type will exclude it from receiving messages.
