== General Information and Setup Summary==<div class="summarybox">An Auto Action is an action which can be used '''manually or programmed to run automatically''' at a specific time relative to the time of the '''booking''', to the '''check-in''' date or to the '''check-out''' date.
An Auto Action is an action which actions have one or more trigger conditions and one or more actions. They can be programmed triggered on a number of different conditions, like property, time or booking related conditions. Auto Actions can *send pre-drafted Emails, messages or SMS*change booking information*change invoice information *run webhooks*trigger HTTP POST notificationsYou can create chains of actions to automate workflows.</div> == General Information ==Template variables provide great flexibility when creating/managing the Auto Actions. Setup one Auto Action to run at a trigger on multiple/all properties/rooms with the property specific time relative details, using the [[Template Variables]]. This removes the need to duplicate your auto actions for each Property. Reducing the time ongoing management, multiple copies of the booking, same auto action will require you to edit/modify each auto action rather than update one auto action.  Using 'Group Keywords' you can refine the triggers in the Auto Action to include/exclude properties if the check purpose/message in date the Auto action needs to be different. <span style="color:#019cde; font-size: 150%;“ >{{#fas:info-circle}} </span> Auto Actions are not designed as real-time actions. They are sent in batches at times so we recommend you set your triggers to allow for this. == Setup ==Go to {{#fas:cog}} (SETTINGS) GUEST MANAGEMENT > AUTO ACTION  *Click 'Add New Action' button. You can choose whether you want to start with an empty Auto Action or whether you want to use a template that you can customise further.  *To MODIFY an Auto Action, scroll to the check out dateAuto Action and click on "Edit", make the changes and click SAVE.

===Auto Actions and Subaccounts===
Auto Actions are account functions, i.e. they apply per account.
'''1. Account A ''' (master account or subaccount) in which the auto action was created.
Auto Actions are available according to the "Property" setting in the "Trigger" tab. I.e. either for
*all properties visible in the account (properties belonging to the account, properties available in the account).

The easiest way *To send Emails automatically you need to do this is usually by reducing the testing window to the smallest necessary and adjusting the trigger condition to the most suitable.For example a trigger that tests all bookings from booking time for 1 year will test many bookings while a trigger that tests only the 7 days before checkset up your outgoing Email address in {{#fas:cog}} (SETTINGS) ACCOUNT -in will test less bookings and perform faster> OUTGOING EMAIL.

It is also possible to specify Some systems have a booking number and test if limit of about 2000 characters for this form of email generation. If the auto action would trigger on that booking with some diagnostics information shown to help trouble shootingemail will not open try reducing the amount of text.
== Troubleshooting == '''If Auto Actions do not Action Emails are sent automatically they will send:''' The list in the "Mail" tab of the booking will tell you why.
