Can I Customize the Words Used in Scheduled Order Details Table?

Merchants using custom language in place of "Scheduled Orders" may want to make sure their customer email notifications use consistent language (whether non-english or use "Subscription" in place of "Scheduled Order"). Admins can customize (aka localize) these words from their QPilot Merchant Center (QPilot > Sites > Email Templates >> Email Localization Settings).

What Email Localization Fields Are Customizable

Admins can localize the language of every term in the Scheduled Order details table. These include:

• Scheduled Order
• Shipping Address
• Frequency
• Next Occurrence
• Payment Method
• Product
• Quantity
• Price
• Out of Stock (used for when products are unavailable to process on a Scheduled Order)
• Subtotal
• Shipping
• Tax
• TBD (used when no tax rates exist for Scheduled Order conditions)
• Total
• No Payment Method

See an example below of an Admin who customized their Email Localization settings by changing the fields for "Scheduled Order" to "Subscription" and the "Shipping Address" to "Delivery Address"

Dynamic Fields For Template Sections

Dynamic fields that are populated dynamically by QPilot in Email Templates for Customer Notifications. QPilot will automatically populate these with the correct customer and Scheduled Order details when email notifications are sent.

🚧

Where Can Dynamic Fields be Used in Email Notifications

Dynamic fields may only be used in the text areas in QPilot Email Notifications to customers. They will not work in the Email Localization fields.
