you will be brought to a new popup providing you with variable options for customizing your templates. To begin with, you will see that you can customize the Subject and Greeting on the email in addition to the overall message. You will also see that you can insert dynamic variables into your subject, greeting, or message.

Simply click your cursor where you want to insert a dynamic variable, then open the dynamic variable category you want to work with in the left menu

and then click the dynamic variable you would like. This will insert custom text for the variable.

Then on the bottom of the popup you can view a preview of what your email will look like with dummy data filled in for those dynamic variables! Once finished, click save in the popup and future emails will use those new settings.

Any of the "Date" type variables allow you to change the formatting used in the date to change how the date will be displayed. Use the letter E for the day of week, M for Month, D for Day & Y for year with / or - as separators. Examples of valid date formats are: MM-DD-YY; M/D; YYYY/MM/DD; EEE, M/D/YY). You can see a full list of date options here: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/text/SimpleDateFormat.html

Please note: if anything inside the [] brackets for a variable is edited incorrectly the variable will not display and the broken code text will appear in the email. If you Preview a copy of the email you will see sample results.
