9. Now you can choose where the file is saved and change the name of the file.  You can save it on your desktop or create a new folder to store all your schedule export files.

You should name the file something meaningful that is easy to find when you need to upload it later to your account on 1-800 Notify.

Example, if you were exporting the 3 day ahead schedule for sending reminder calls for appointments scheduled on Jan 24th, 2018, you might name the file 01-24-18-CALLS

Similarly, if you were exporting the 1 day ahead schedule (for Jan 22nd) for sending text reminders, then you might name the file 01-22-18-TEXTS

Make sure you get both days exported into separate files.

Call file should be appointments 3 working days ahead of today.

Text file should be appointments 1 working day ahead of today.

=== YOU'RE DONE WITH THE EXPORT ===

Next, follow the instructions in the article linked below to login and upload the reminder message.

You'll be uploading the CALL file to the message called: A-Use-this-for-CALLS

and the TEXT file to this message: B-Use-this-for-TEXTS.
