Configure an SMS Gateway
How to Configure an SMS Gateway in Muhasib ERP
Overview
This guide will help you configure a reusable SMS gateway request and check it using synthetic data.
The gateway can be selected by locations and used by allowed SMS workflows. Saving does not prove the endpoint accepts or correctly interprets the request.
Who can do this
You need access to SMS Settings and SMS Settings Add/Update.
Before you start
Get the vendor's endpoint, request method, recipient parameter, success code, required parameters/headers, and test credentials. Never use production recipients during setup.
Where to find it
Back Office → Essentials Setup → Manage SMS Settings.
