More Information
In order to create a Dynamic SMS Message you will need to, click on " Messages" at the top of Platinum on the "Task Bar" and then go to " SMS Messages Manage Messages".
- Press <F6> or click the [Add] button.
- On the new screen that appears you will need to do the following:
- Give the Message a "Description:".
- Set the "From:" to 'Fixed text'.
- Then enter up to eleven characters. (This will show when the message is received by the recipient.)
- Set the "Text source" to 'Dynamic text'.
- The next part is to select the module where the report that has the "Dynamic text" is located.
(For Example: A text message notifying a customer that their vehicle is ready for collection, would need to run from the Workshop. So you would need to select 'Workshop Management' in the drop down.) - Finally the you will need to enter in the 'Code' for the report, which contains the "Dynamic text". (i.e. '}AA'.).
