'''Purpose'''<br />
<br />
The RW Texting module provides the ability to send text messages to renters’ mobile phones, both automatically and manually (from the reservation and contract Drivers tab, a text message can be sent to any driver listed). <br />
<br />
RW Texting allows a car rental company to send text messages to their customers’ mobile phone for:<br />
<br />
Please note that this is an add-on module and per text fees apply. There are also additional set-up requirements. Please see the RW Texting Setup Guide.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Fields'''<br />
<br />
Type ID - Enter the Type ID you wish to modify:<br />
<br />
1) upcoming reservations<br />
<br />
2) rental agreements that are due to check-in soon<br />
<br />
3) rental agreements that are past their scheduled check-in date<br />
<br />
4) to thank them for their business after a vehicle has checked in<br />
<br />
Description - The Description of the Type ID.<br />
<br />
Last Updated/By - The date and time the Type ID record was updated, and by which employee.<br />
<br />
Process Timing - Enter the desired values (which differ based on the Type ID).<br />
<br />
Default Message - Enter an appropriate Type ID message. Keep it to 160 characters or less. The following “fill-in” fields can be used by the module to fill in data from the reservation or contract:<br />
<br />
:%FirstName%<br />
<br />
:%LastName% <br />
<br />
:%ContractNumber%<br />
<br />
:%ConfirmationNumber% <br />
<br />
:%PickUpDate% <br />
<br />
:%PickUpTime%<br />
<br />
:%PickUpLocationName% <br />
<br />
:%DueBackDate%<br />
<br />
:%DueBackTime%<br />
<br />
:%DueBackLocationName% <br />
<br />
:%CompanyName% - pulled from the pick up Location’s record. <br />
<br />
:%CompanyPhone% - pulled from the pick up Location’s record.<br />
<br />
Last Run/Runtime Message - Once a text message is sent to the renter, a tag is stored with the reservation/contract showing the date a message was last sent. This prevents a Renter from receiving a text message every hour for the same transaction. As the LastSent tag is tied to the reservation/contract, this still allows the renter to receive messages if they are on other reservations or contracts. The processes will send messages every two days, if the transaction calls for it.<br />
