✍️ Template editor#
Message templates are reusable texts with {variables} such as {customer_name}, {amount}, {invoice_no}, {due_date} and {business_name}.
- Built-in templates (marked built-in) are used by the app's automations and cannot be deleted.
- Your templates: enter a name (
template_name— 3–50 lowercase letters, digits and_), choose the channel, write the text (Hi {customer_name}, … use {variables} freely) and click Save template. - Preview shows the text with sample values (for example Bashir Ahmad, 15/07/2026, Demo Textiles).
- Delete asks Delete template "name"?.
Your templates appear in Prefill from a template… when sending a custom WhatsApp message.
SMS#
SMS is sent through the platform's SMS gateway (MSG91) when the platform has it configured. Invoice dispatch, payment links and bulk reminders send SMS alongside WhatsApp.
