Within Pre-Applicant Open Days, there are several special Mail Merge Fields available.
​ 
These are Booking Ref and Event Date. Both of these mail merge fields should ONLY be used in the Booked workflow. Students in the Invite workflow have not yet booked, so will not have a Booking Ref or Event Date.
​ 
The Booking Ref mail merge field allows you to easily insert the students unique booking reference into your communications. This booking reference can then be used by the student to access their personalised programme.
​ 
The Event Date mail merge fields allows you to easily insert the date of the open day that the student has booked on.

The Event Programme merge fields let you insert information from the student's programme into your communications. The Programme merge fields allow you to insert the Programme Course Group Text, Programme Course Info Text, Programme Faculty Event Text, Programme Footer Text, Programme Header Text and the student's Programme Timetable. All of these are available as individual merge fields, so you can pick and choose which programme information is included in your comms.
​ 
There is also a mail merge field called Status. This is not useful for merging into touchpoints and is only used for Workflow conditions.
