Article sections
Not only can you use ##TAGS## in your templates, you can also use them in canned messages for your invoices and ticket notes. Below are some ideas how you can use ##TAGS## to generate guaranteed additional income from repeat customers!
To create canned messages for your ticket notes you can do this directly from the Tickets Notes area. If you do not have a canned message configured, click Add New button. If you want to edit existing canned messages you can do this via Settings->Ticket Notes:
Example 1 – AntiVirus Renewal Date.
Uses ##DATEADD_YEAR## to show customer their renewal date. In our own repair shops, we also generate customers’ antivirus login username and password using ##TICKETIDNUM## as the unique identifier. This will prevent your antivirus provider from emailing your customers about their annual renewals (often undercutting you!).
