Reminders with Appointment Changes
The appointment reminders need to make sure to reflect the CURRENT appointment day and time. We have had several clients come in at the original appointment day or time, though it was changed in the system, the reminder that got sent to them was for the prior day/time instead of the changed time. This is a BIG issue for our time and theirs. PLEASE fix sooner than later! Thank you.

I have run into this many times as well but didn’t have the explicit data to back up my hypothesis that if an appointment was moved AFTER the confirmation window for sending a confirmation message has passed, then there will be no further confirmation message. Or if the appointment has been moved but was previously confirmed, it retains its confirmed status and also does not send a message out to confirm.
After confirming these scenarios by intentionally replicating them, I now agree with this idea in that this is not an edge case and perhaps retained inconsistencies with what we feel the software should be doing and what it is performing based on “perfect” operations being in conflict.
