%order_reference%: The reference of the refunded order.
%amount%: The amount refunded.
6. Session Email
This email is sent as a blind carbon copy (BCC) to multiple recipients to share general information about a session. No custom variables are available, as the email is not nominative.
7. Email Fees
This email is used to inform a client of the fees associated with a service. The available variables are:
%client_first_name%: The client's first name.
%client_last_name%: The client's last name.
%source_team%: The name of the team (entity) that charges the fees.
Simplified Explanation
Each email template can use a set of variables to automatically insert information specific to each client or booking. This allows you to personalize messages without having to manually enter every detail. For example, using %client_first_name% will automatically insert the client's first name into the email. Note that some variables are specific to one email type and are not available in others.
Finally, for emails sent in blind carbon copy (BCC), such as session emails, it is not possible to use custom variables, because these messages are identical for all recipients.
