The three emails CaterWay sends automatically

Three emails go out on their own once you turn them on, no need to remember any of them yourself.

The three reminders

Find them under Settings โ†’ Email, in the Message templates section's Automated reminders group. The picker lists all three, each row showing a status dot for whether it's currently on:

ReminderGoes toTiming
Quote follow-upThe customer3 days after you send a quote, if they haven't responded
Event prep reminderYou7 days before a confirmed event
Thank-you after eventThe customerThe day after their event
Select a reminder to see its own Send this reminder automatically switch, right there next to it, and an Edit message button that opens the subject/body editor with merge tags and a live preview.

Tip

The quote follow-up email automatically includes the customer's approval link, so they can accept or decline straight from it, see How customers approve quotes.

Per-calculator overrides

Pro feature

Overriding these per calculator requires Pro (it lives alongside custom email templates).

Open a calculator's Email tab to override the global setting just for that calculator, for Quote follow-up and Thank-you after event only, the event prep reminder is always global. Each override is a choice between using the global setting (shown live as currently on or off), forcing it on, or forcing it off for that one calculator.
