When you first click on the Email and Text Message tab you will be presented with a table showing the status of the current message within the system. By clicking on the message in the table you will be able to edit the text or change the status from active to inactive.

Within each of the message categories set up for your installation. It is possible for you to change the wording of the message as well as the formatting of the message. The use of some simple HTML tags can easily modify how the messages look to your customers.
