Email Templates

You create one email template per status. When a ticket moves to that status, the customer receives an email automatically — no manual action needed.

Emails are sent via Resend from your RepairTracker account.

Go to Settings > Email Templates.

  1. Click a status to create or edit its template.
  2. Write a subject line and body. Use variables (below) to personalize the message.
  3. Toggle the template Active to enable sending.

Use these in both the subject and body:

VariableDescription
{{ticket_number}}The ticket number (e.g., REP-00042)
{{customer_name}}Customer’s full name
{{item_description}}Item being repaired
{{status_name}}The new status name
{{estimated_date}}Estimated completion date
{{shop_name}}Your business name
{{status_url}}Link to the customer portal status page
{{tracking_number}}Outbound tracking number
{{shipping_carrier}}Shipping carrier name

Each template has an active/inactive toggle. Inactive templates are saved but won’t trigger emails. This lets you draft templates before enabling them or temporarily pause notifications for a status.

When you change a ticket’s status and that status has an active email template, you’ll see a confirmation modal before the email is sent. This prevents accidental emails.

Emails are only sent if the customer has email consent enabled on their customer record. If consent is not granted, the status changes normally but no email is sent.

  • Free plan: 1 active email template.
  • Pro plan: Unlimited templates.

On the Free plan, you can create templates for multiple statuses but only one can be active at a time.
