A great feature that VanillaSoft offers is what's called Result-Code Based Emails & SMS. This feature allows you to send either an email, an SMS message, or both automatically simply by selecting a Result Code. This drastically reduces the amount of work needed and increases efficiency. To set this up, you will need to have Administrator access.
Note: To use this feature, you must use email or SMS templates that have already been created. To learn how to create these templates, view our How To Create an Email Template and How to Create an SMS Template articles.
