Technical Field and Function Data
The following table describes the fields and functions available within this dialog.
|
Field/Function |
Description |
|
Service Provider Name |
Provide the name of the cell phone service provider that you wish to process text message for certain MSCrew users (up to 50 characters), i.e. AT&T Wireless. The values entered here are assignable to MSCrew users through the Mobile User tab within Personnel Setup users. |
|
|
Disable SMS via Email Check this flag to not attempt to send a password reset through email using an appropriate gateway (SMS Domain Name specified below). When checked, the password reset can only occur through a direct text message. If unchecked, then either option may be available (based on additional settings described within Mobile Password Reset). |
|
Short Message Service (SMS) Domain Name |
Enter the domain of the service provider for exchanging text message through email (up to 50 characters), e.g., txt.att.net. This setting is considered a “gateway” for cell providers to accept email via a cell phone. For example, if a mobile user’s cell phone is 970-256-1616 and the SMS domain is txt.att.net, then the password reset information through an email would be through 9702561616@txt.att.net.
Note: Source of available SMS providers is available through the internet by searching for “SMS gateways.”

Note: The name of the established email profile displays within the Send Test SMS Message dialog. |
