Admin > SMS Template Screen > + SMS Template Button
An SMS template entry screen allows users to create or edit templates for sending SMS (Short Message Service) messages. It typically provides a text message input field where you can compose the content of the message template. The screen also enables you to save commonly used or frequently sent messages as templates for quick and easy access.
This screen is accessible from the SMS Template Welcome screen. Once you select the +SMS Template button, it will take you to the Email Template entry screen.
The created SMS template can be sent based on the selected option from the ‘Template Type’ dropdown. For instance, if ‘Student’ is chosen, you can send this template from the Student Dashboard and other related screens. From the Student Dashboard, choose the ‘Send an SMS’ option from the burger menu of the communication log.
