They will be able to send one of two messages from this screen:
- An 'On My Way' notification, or a
- 'Late' notification.
These messages will show how many minutes away you are from arrival or if you are late. The text in the On My Way message cannot be edited.
If the user who is sending the On My Way text message has a phone number listed under in their profile from the Gear Icon > Manage Team on the desktop, they will have an additional option for Reply Number. If they select "company" the phone number set up in your branding will be the one that the client is prompted to call. If they select "personal" the number that appear in the text will be the number listed for that employee in their personal settings.
If the user has no phone number set up, the message will include your company branding phone number by default.
Once sent, the client will receive a message that looks similar to the example below:
If a client replies to this text, they will receive an auto-reply telling them to contact your company directly.
