Generate Appointment Reminders

Use the Generate Appointment Reminders process to schedule and send appointment reminders. Once initiated, this process runs automatically and schedules appointment reminders according to your profile options, preferences and appointment settings.

If you're using the integration between CX Sales and Microsoft 365, you don't need to setup appointment reminders in CX Sales because your mail client automatically sends reminders.
