Our article here explains how to accomplish the above tasks: Adding/Editing Referrers and Referrals
Generating the Letter from a Letter Template
1. Go to the client’s profile and navigate to Communication → New Letter.
2. Select the Related Appointment, if applicable.
3. Next, choose the Template you want to send the referral to.
❇️ You’ll see the letter appear in the text editor, ready for sending.
-
Feel free to edit the text or add any extra information.
- Use BizzyAI: Write to help you draft and edit the letter byusing preset prompts or typying in your own instructions.

Sending the Letter
After drafting your letter, you can send it as a PDF via email. Here’s how:
1. Click the Send as Attachment button on the bottom-right corner.
2. Read the prompt that appears, and click YES to continue.
3. ❗In the ‘ To:’ drop down menu, choose the referrer to whom you want to send the email.
4. Use the ‘ CC:’ field to select the client or a client’s contact. Doing so will send the letter to them in addition to the referrer.
- When you send the letter as attachment, you will be able to select a custom email template created and saved in Tools Communication > Templates.
- If you do not select a custom email template, the system will use a default template for sending attachments.
- The 'From' email address in the default email template is populated from the User Menu > Account Settings > Communication > Communication Options page, the 'Business Email Address' field.
- If no email address is entered there, the system will use the email address saved in User Menu > Account Settings > Practice > Business Info.

Hint
- Before you send the email, you will be able to add more attachments to it, if necessary. You can use the text editor feature to upload a file from your previous uploads folder, or directly from your device.
- If you need to add a client file from their profile > Records > Files or Admin > Admin Files, you will need to download it to your device first, and then upload to the email with an attached letter.
6. Send the email.
💡Important
If you do not see the Send Email button, this means that your display is set to scale larger than 100%. To resolve:
- Zoom out on the browser screen to 100% for the immediate fix.
- On a Windows device, set up the Display Scaling and Layout to 100% by default, for the permanent fix:
- Open device Settings > System > Display
- Select the Scale and Layout to be 100% (Recommended)
- On a macOS device,
- go to the Apple Menu > System Preferences > Displays
- change the scaling to be smaller (more space)
7. Now go to the referrer’s profile (use the search bar to quickly find the referrer) and navigate to Communication > Activity.
- Here, you’ll see the letter + email.
- If it is in ‘ Sent’ status, it means the email and the attached letter successfully went through to your referrer's inbox.
