Welcome to the Seller Community @H2OWellness99! And thanks for your question.

 

There's not a way to add a second phone number to receive appointment notifications. But you can change the phone number from your Customer Directory. When you click on someone's profile, you're able to edit the phone number associated with it. Whichever phone number you update to will be the one which notifications are sent to.

 

Hoping this helps you out!

Sorry no, that doesn't help.

 

I am the business owner and would like to change the phone number that receives text messages - as the business owner. I know i can go change the phone number of any of my hundreds of customers, i need to change the number of the business owner.
