You can add Reminders to each Itinerary items so that all Contacts and Vendors who are assigned to each item will receive a reminder a short time in advance of when each item is scheduled to occur. You can set Itinerary item reminders to:
- Trigger anywhere from the start time of the item up to 30 minutes prior to the start time.
- Send assigned Contacts and Vendors email and/or text message reminders.
For example, say you have created the item "Check-in begins" that starts at 8:00 am and you have assigned 2 Contacts (both staff members) and 2 Vendors to the item. You want to remind all these people 10 minutes prior to when check-in begins so they can be at the proper place at the proper time. You can create a Reminder for the item that triggers 10 minutes ahead of the item, and you can set it to send an email and/or a text message reminder at that time.
When you add a new Itinerary item, you can create a Reminder when you are setting up the new item; otherwise, you can use the instructions below to add/modify Reminders.
