For Example, most businesses have a booking process involving a number of emails, such as service confirmations, invoices, accounts receivable, and other communications with clients and staff.

Using Merge Codes
A merge code inserts client-specific information into an email, at the time of sending the email so you can personalize each email you send, even when you send 100 at a time. For example, if the merge code {CLIENT_FIRST_NAME} is used in an email template, the client's name is merged upon transmission. So instead of "Dear Client," it can read "Dear Jane."
Tip: Certain Merge Codes need to be used in context, i.e. Merge Code {PAYMENT_RECEIVED} can only be used from the Receipt area and merge codes beginning {INVOICE_... } only work in the Invoicing area. This is important to remember as misused Merge Codes will fail.
