Setup guide

To apply this template in Pendula, simply select a scheduled flow and set this to run as a once-off. We generally recommend a time between 9am-12pm. This means that when it is scheduled to run, it will send to all student records based on the criteria specified below:

  • To ensure the communication goes out in advance of the date or the day of, set the orientation start day date to <selector>equals<selector> today or tomorrow. Set this using date formulas such as <selector>TODAY()<selector> OR <selector>TODAY()+DAYS(1)<selector> For more information on Date Formulas, see...
  • Campus <selector>equals<selector> <name> (if you would like to segment in/out attendees of a particular campus)
  • Additionally, you'll need to ensure you have a placeholder field for capturing data upon a call request
