Notifications - What to Do if Your Employees Aren't Receiving Appointment Notifications and Reminders (On the Desktop Version)

If your employees are not getting email and text notifications or reminders, go through these troubleshooting steps when using the Desktop Version:

• Make sure to enable the option for employees to receive notifications in your Settings.
• Make sure the employee's email and phone number in their profile are valid.
• Enable the option for them to receive notifications and reminders in their Employee Profile. 

Remember, if a customer books an appointment, class or workshop on your booking page online, they will not receive a text notification. But they will see a message on the screen confirming that the appointment was booked.

If you book an appointment on your calendar in your Vagaro account, the client will receive a notification.

Also, remember customers can only reply to email notifications. They can't respond to automated text messages as the messages come from a short code number, 89885.
