Tool Search: Attendance Messenger Scheduler
The Attendance Messenger Scheduler tool sets the dates and times for automatic delivery of attendance messages, according to a template first created in the Attendance Messenger tool.
The Attendance Messenger Scheduler will automatically generate messages based on the data available at that time. A confirmation email will be sent to the person that created the messenger schedule telling them that it has run and how many phones/email devices received the message. The person must have an email address entered on their Demographics tab.
