Messaging

Messaging is the customer conversation area in TracsConnect. When texting is enabled, the dashboard sidebar shows Communication > Texting.

  • View and search conversations by customer name or phone number.
  • Filter down to unread conversations so nothing slips through.
  • Send text messages and attach photos when your phone service supports it.
  • Use templates for common messages — appointment reminders, birthday texts, follow-ups, and more.
  • Set up automations that send those messages for you.

Your shop needs a connected phone service and an assigned sending number. You set that up under Setup > Connections. Messaging settings (automations, templates, and the sending number) live under Settings.
